German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier dissolved parliament on Friday and confirmed the expected February date for an early general election after the collapse of Olaf Scholz's government last month.

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has dissolved the Bundestag, Germany's federal parliament, and scheduled a new federal election for February 23. This decision follows the collapse of the current coalition government, led by Chancellor Olaf Scholz, due to irreconcilable policy differences, particularly on climate change and economic reforms. The dissolution was formalized after consultations with the leaders of all major political parties, aiming to provide stability and a fresh mandate amidst ongoing political and economic challenges. The announcement has set the stage for a vigorous campaign period, with parties now preparing to present their visions for Germany's future.
