YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Just hours from now, Germany's Chancellor will kick off a fight for his political future. Olaf Scholz faces a vote of confidence in parliament – one that he is widely expected to lose. If he does, voters will go to the polls in a general election on February 23. For almost three years, Scholz has been dealing with division inside his three-party coalition – made up of center-left, environmentalist, and pro-business lawmakers – which collapsed last month.

For more on this, we talk DW's chief political editor, Michaela Küfner.
