  • German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier dissolved parliament and set the country's snap election for Feb. 23, formally endorsing a timetable proposed by Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

The article from OregonLive discusses German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier's decision to call for a snap election following what he described as "blatant interference" from Elon Musk's social media platform, X (formerly known as Twitter). Steinmeier criticized Musk for allegedly manipulating public opinion through the platform, which he claims has led to significant political instability in Germany. The interference reportedly involved the spread of misinformation and biased content that influenced voter behavior during recent local elections. This situation has raised concerns about foreign influence in domestic politics and the integrity of democratic processes. Steinmeier's call for an early election aims to restore public trust and counteract the effects of this external manipulation.
