The German lower house of parliament, the Bundestag, is convening as coalition talks between the SPD and CDU continue. The 630 lawmakers are scheduled to elect a new parliamentary president.


The German Bundestag convened for its inaugural session following the recent federal election, marking the beginning of a new legislative term. This session is significant as it involves the election of the Bundestag's president, who plays a crucial role in managing parliamentary proceedings. The meeting comes after an election that saw a shift in political power, with the Social Democrats (SPD) gaining the most seats, although not enough for an outright majority, leading to coalition negotiations. Key topics expected to be discussed include the formation of the government, the potential coalition partners, and the policy priorities for the upcoming term. This session sets the stage for the political landscape in Germany for the next four years, focusing on issues like climate change, digitalization, and social justice.
