Auf der Gästetribüne saß der Bundespräsident, Abgeordnete machten Selfies, die Regierungsbank blieb leer – die Konstituierung des Bundestags ist immer eine besondere Sitzung.
The newly elected Bundestag convened for its first session, opened by veteran Left party politician Gregor Gysi as the acting speaker. Gysi's opening speech was politically charged. An AfD motion to appoint Alexander Gauland as acting speaker was rejected. The session involved the formal constitution of the Bundestag amid debate and discussion, including the potential challenges of integrating the AfD into parliamentary leadership positions and electing a new speaker of the Bundestag.
