SPD: Pistorius vs. Scholz! Who will be the candidate for chancellor? There is a threat of a coup in the party! Pressure is mounting within the SPD to make a decision on the question of the candidate for chancellor. After days of discussion about whether incumbent Olaf Scholz or Defense Minister Boris Pistorius is the better candidate for the upcoming new election, the SPD leadership wants to meet this evening. According to an SPD spokeswoman, the call is "a regular telephone conference with the deputy party leaders to organize the early election campaign in terms of dates and deadlines." Party leaders Lars Klingbeil and Saskia Esken, General Secretary Matthias Miersch and the deputy party leaders are expected to take part in the conversation. Scholz is not currently attending. His return flight from the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro is planned for the evening German time. #worldnewschannel #germany #spd #scholz #pistorius Subscribe to the WELT YouTube Channel / weltvideotv WELT DOKU Channel / weltdoku WELT Podcast Channel / weltpodcast WELT Netzreporter Channel / dienetzreporter The WELT news livestream http://bit.ly/2fwuMPg The top news on WELT.de http://bit.ly/2rQQD9Q The media library on WELT.de http://bit.ly/2Iydxv8 WELT news channel on Instagram / welt.nachrichtensender WELT on Instagram / welt On our own behalf: Due to the high volume of irrelevant and offensive posts, we are currently unable to accept any more comments.
