German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier ordered parliament dissolved Friday and has set a date for the next election to take place on Feb. 23, 2025. The move comes as Chancellor Olaf Scholz lost control of his majority coalition in November after he fired his finance minister over disagreements on how to revitalize the country's economy.

The German government has decided to dissolve its parliament and schedule new elections for February, following a period of political instability. This decision comes after the ruling coalition failed to pass key legislation, leading to a vote of no confidence that resulted in the dissolution of the Bundestag. The move aims to resolve ongoing political deadlock and provide a fresh mandate to address critical issues such as economic recovery, climate change, and social reforms. The announcement has sparked a flurry of political activity as parties prepare for the upcoming campaign, with implications for both domestic policy and Germany's role in European and global affairs.
