German Election Winner Friedrich Merz explores ways to minimize the rest of the country’s borrowing cap in which parties mainly hold a superhority.
Talking to reporters on Monday, the leader of the Center-right Christian Democratic union says that areas away from Bundestag, given the power to prevent any constitutional changes, including the so-called constitutional changes. Freak in debt.
Alternatively is the same for Germany (AFD) and Linke will die that they disobey the debt drain to fund further expenditure of defense.
But Merz said the main parties can still work under the current legislature, running through March 24. The vegetables and liberal democrats about finding a solution before, he said.
“Before I think of the public about it, let me talk about this social Democrats, FDP and also the vegetables now in the next few days… That means we have four more weeks to think about it , “He said.
Merz added that the Bundestag “is able to make decisions at any time” and “act without interruption, even after the election”.
His CDU and the Bavarian Sister Party CSU won the German Parliamentary election with 28.5 percent of the vote, which would succeed in DAF Scholz as Chancellor. But Lifd and die link includes winning more than 210 seats needed for a “obstruction of minority”.
That gives them power to prevent any revision of debt in Germany, a statute pointed to the constitution in 2009 to prevent government shortage in the GDP.
The same situation is available for creating a special off-balance sheet to the sheet like € 100bn Pat announced in Scholz in 2022 to fund the full German invasion of Putin.
During the campaign Merz forces him to degrade debt, while not reigned in discussions how to change it. But economists have warned that without changing the provision or creating a special off-budget fund, it will be impossible to finance tens of billions of euros of urgently needed extra investment in the eurozone’s largest economy.
That includes money for crushing transportation and communications as well as a higher defense budget in the falls of the total Russian invasion.

Even if Merz says he believes he can find funds to spend investment by beating the development of welfare and encouraging analysis inadequate.
While not unusual, gathering an outgoing Bundestag to approve decisions not without first.
In October 1998, about three weeks after the federal election but before a new government was in place, a special session was held by the German armed forces in Kosovo to a person who was constant in Controlling someone to prevent a steady disaster.
According to the Constitution, the new German Parliament must meet in less than 30 days after the election. But the Bundestag president can gather in parliament earlier at a third of its members, the Federal President or the Chancellor.
Holger Schmoding, Economist at Bankerberg Bank, said this scenario “hard but technically possible”. But he warned that the opposition “had a good case to challenge any Constitutional Court decision because the change was better”.
Green Leader Robert Habeck said Monday he liked a quick repugnance of debt before the new parliament until chosen in Parliament, chosen to choose from Parliament, who responded to Parliament, which responds to parlyament.
“It should be speeches, all who can need to discuss, with the best caution,” Scholz said, whose SPD is the only light partner of the CDO / CSU.
Outgoing financial minister Jörg Katiies, also from SPD, says there is a “little time” in political changes when political changes are now being an ancient major ” .
Meanwhile, AFD co-leader repeats Alice that he wants to obey such reform. “The state does not have to spend more than it brings,” he said on Monday, who added that his opposition was also given to make a special fund for defense expenditure for defense.
The Die Sinke Co-Leader Ines Schwerdtner said the party agrees with the debt renovation that drives the state’s misconduct intensification. But he repeats the party position it does not vote in favor of mounting the military or sending weapons to Ukraine.
