💨 Abstract

Germany's lower house of parliament is holding a special session on Thursday to discuss a 500 billion euro fund for infrastructure and defense, aimed at strengthening Europe's largest economy. The proposal, put forward by the conservative winner of Germany's recent election, Friedrich Merz, requires a two-thirds majority to pass constitutional changes. However, it faces opposition from far-right and far-left lawmakers and may be challenged in the constitutional court.
