- Friedrich Merz, the German Chancellor, is considering a government reshuffle following the resignation of Jens Spahn, a key parliamentary ally. Spahn's departure was linked to a surrogacy scandal and presents Merz with an opportunity to strengthen his coalition. Merz aims to stabilize his leadership by potentially replacing Spahn and re-evaluating the government's structure. The reshuffle could improve relations with the Social Democratic Party, Merz's coalition partners. Various candidates are being considered to succeed Spahn as parliamentary leader.
