In Berlin, speculation grows about whether Chancellor Olaf Scholz will remain the candidate for the Social Democratic Party (SPD) in upcoming elections, or if they will support the more popular Defense Minister Boris Pistorius. With the SPD’s current polling at around 15% and criticisms mounting against Scholz, party leaders convened to discuss their candidate. While Pistorius has gained support for his decisive leadership and clear communication, questions remain about his readiness to take on the chancellorship amidst internal party dynamics and a coalition crisis.
