Union und SPD verhandeln über ihre Kleine Koalition. Der alte Bundestag debattiert über neue Schulden. Und Annalena Baerbock vertritt noch einmal Deutschland. Das ist die Lage am Donnerstagmorgen.
The CDU, CSU, and SPD are starting coalition negotiations, meticulously splitting catering costs. The Bundestag is debating new, extensive infrastructure and defense loans, echoing a satirical proposal about replacing the debt brake with a "debt accelerator." Annalena Baerbock is in Quebec for what is likely her final G7 foreign ministers' meeting as Foreign Minister, amid concerns about shifting international relations. Additionally, there are related articles about legal challenges to the financial package, leadership vacuums in the FDP, economic perspectives, and the potential rollback of Baerbock's foreign policy.
