Chancellor Friedrich Merz changes his government. He wants a new start. The government has low popularity. A reason for this is the exit of Jens Spahn. He was the leader of the party group.
There are important changes in jobs. Nina Warken was health minister before. Now she leads the chancellory office. She plans the daily work for the chancellor. Carsten Linnemann is the new health minister. He was party secretary before.
Philipp Amthor gets a new task. He becomes state minister. He helps with the work with the federal states. Thorsten Frei takes the lead of the party group. He is very loyal to the chancellor.
The transport ministry had big problems. Patrick Schnieder should leave his job. The train is often late. This makes people angry. Merz wanted Fritz Güntzler as new transport minister. Güntzler knows much about money.
Fritz Güntzler said yes first. But in the morning he said no. He used a text message for this. So Patrick Schnieder stays in office. Friedrich Merz could not tell this news. The party has much fight now.
