In November 2024 the ruling “traffic light coalition” collapsed due to the withdrawal of the FDP over disagreements regarding the draft federal budget for 2025. Scholz plans to ask the Bundestag for a vote of confidence on 15 January 2025, which in case of failure will give the President the choice to dissolve the Bundestag and call early elections within 60 days.}}
