If Habeck is Heading West, What About His Political Stance?
A few weeks ago, there were whispers that Habeck might take a break from politics after leaving the traffic light government. Some even suggested he might even quit his Bundestag mandate altogether.
In the running to take over is none other than Mayra Vriesema, another Green politician from Schleswig-Holstein.
Currently, Habeck is still a part of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Bundestag, focusing on German-American relations.
