Chancellor Olaf Scholz dismissed Finance Minister Christian Lindner for failing to complete the budget. Economy Minister Robert Habeck, while acknowledging the loss of a parliamentary majority, affirmed that Germany can still function. Habeck also stated that he had no intention of serving as interim finance minister.
