German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has fired Finance Minister Christian Lindner, paving the way for a confidence vote by parliament in January that is expected to lead to early elections next March.

BERLIN — German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has fired Finance Minister Christian Lindner, paving the way for a confidence vote by parliament on Jan. 15 that is expected to lead to early elections next March.

I do not want to subject our country to such behavior any more,” Scholz said, barely hiding his irritation.Scholz’s Social Democrats, Lindner’s pro-business Free Democrats and the Green party. The coalition took office after political heavyweight Chancellor Angela Merkel

The dismissal of Lindner will lead to a confidence vote which could pave the way for new elections. The political sleight of hand is required as the German constitution does not allow a chancellor to directly announce early elections. Omid Nouripour, co-chair of the Greens, said before Scholz’s announcement that the coalition had an opportunity “to signal that we have understood how serious the situation is.”
