Reuters exclusively reports German coalition parties mull more debt to super-charge climate fund

Reuters exclusively reported that three German parties working to form a new coalition government are discussing higher federal borrowing next year to allow a one-time, multi-billion-euro injection into the government’s climate investment fund. The center-left Social Democrats, the ecologist Greens and the pro-business Free Democrats face a massive spending problem as they agreed in exploratory talks to return to strict debt limits from 2023 and avoid tax increases.
