Chancellor Olaf Scholz has decided to call a confidence vote after months of internal conflict within his government, triggered by the firing of finance minister Christian Lindner.
The session will only focus on the confidence vote, with Scholz hoping for a majority of MPs to vote against him, which would allow for the Bundestag to be dissolved.
If successful, Scholz's plan will lead to a recommendation for the president to dissolve the Bundestag, setting the stage for early elections.
Germany's coalition government faces significant challenges, resulting from fiscal disagreements and the departure of the Free Democrats, marking a critical moment for Scholz's administration.
