Following the collapse of Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s coalition government, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said it was not a good day for Germany.
It is also “not a good day for Europe,” the Green Party politician said outside the Chancellery in Berlin late Wednesday.
Europe bears a responsibility for peace on its continent and in Ukraine, Baerbock asserted.
She noted that, in view of the consequences of the war in Ukraine, the government needed to make an exception to the tight set of fiscal rules known as the debt brake.
The debt brake is enshrined in the country’s constitution.
The Greens had pushed within the coalition for an exception, but it had not been possible to come to an agreement, she added.
