💨 Abstract

Germany's constitutional court has dismissed challenges by opposition parties against a plan by the prospective coalition government to push a 500-billion-euro public borrowing initiative through the outgoing parliament. The measures, proposed by conservative election winner Friedrich Merz, aim to ease debt rules and boost infrastructure spending. The move is necessary, according to Merz, due to shifting U.S. policies under President Trump and potential geopolitical risks.
