Government circles: Ampel coalition reaches agreement in budget dispute
Details of the agreement were not initially disclosed. Federal Finance Minister Christian Lindner (FDP) had put the financial gap in the budget at 17 billion euros.
Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz(SPD) had been negotiating a solution with Linder and Economics Minister Robert Habeck (Greens) for days. The SPD demanded until the very end that the debt brake should also be suspended next year. However, the Liberals strictly rejected this.
