Pistorius says he won't run for chancellor candidate in February's snap elections
The announcement, which Boris Pistorius made in a video posted to SDP social media channels, clears the way for incumbent chancellor Olaf Scholz to run for a second term.
The surprise visit comes a day after Pistorius met with his counterparts from France, the UK, Italy and Poland to discuss coordinating their defence plans and assistance for Ukraine.

The European Union has strongly responded to President Donald Trump’s warning about tariffs, vowing to retaliate if the US imposes new trade barriers. Trump’s administration is set to target the EU with tariffs, building on previous moves against Canada, Mexico, and China. In a sharp response, EU leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, emphasized that Europe would not back down, warning that a trade war would harm both sides. While Trump has argued for fairer trade contributions from European nations, the EU insists that any new tariffs will disrupt both economies. With escalating tensions, the EU has made it clear that it will act in defense of its interests, signaling a potential showdown in global trade relations.
