In the parliamentary elections held in Germany yesterday, the Social Democratic Party (SPD) received a disappointing result.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz of the Social Democratic Party has reacted after the announcement of the exit poll results for the 2025 general elections, foreign media write.
Outgoing Chancellor Olaf Scholz's Social Democrats fell to third place in the election results, with just 16.4%, A2 CNN reports.
Scholz said the election results were a bitter defeat for the party and his party would enter coalition talks with the victorious CDU/CSU without him.
The failure of the incumbent party to secure another term in power reflects an international trend and follows changes or challenges to governments around the world.
For example, in the US President Trump lost a re-election bid in 2020 but returned to power in January, and France has seen multiple blows to President Macron's authority, with his prime minister Michel Barnier forced out of office in December. And of course in the UK last year Labour ended 14 years of Conservative rule. (A2 Televizion)
