Re. Germany: Kramp-Karrenbauer announces resignation as CDU leader

Put her on the list!

Quake in the CDU: According to information from SPIEGEL, party leader Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer stated at the CDU executive committee meeting on Monday morning that she does not intend to run for chancellor. According to Kramp-Karrenbauer, she will give up her chairmanship of the party, according to party circles. The chancellorship, or rather the candidacy for chancellor and party chairmanship, belong in one hand, said Kramp-Karrenbauer, who wants to organize the process of the candidacy for chancellor this summer and then give up the chairmanship.
