Germany's New Chancellor Friedrich Merz to Visit North Rhine-Westphalia
Germany's newly appointed Chancellor, Friedrich Merz, is set to make his inaugural visit to the North Rhine-Westphalian (NRW) state government on Monday, September 1st. This visit marks a significant political engagement between Merz and the NRW state government.
The special cabinet meeting, called by NRW Minister-President Hendrik Wüst (CDU), is still scheduled for the same day. The meeting has been rescheduled from its usual Tuesday slot due to Merz's visit. The ministers have been asked to keep the morning of September 1st free for this visit.
During his visit, Merz is expected to speak at the state party conference in the World Conference Center in Bonn. However, as of now, a visit by Merz to the NRW state parliament is not explicitly confirmed. The focus is on the cabinet meeting arranged by Hendrik Wüst, but no direct reference is found about a visit to the state parliament itself.
It is worth noting that this will be Merz's fourth visit to a German state, following visits to Bavaria, Lower Saxony, and Saarland. The federal government has announced further inaugural visits for Merz after the summer break and throughout the year 2025.
The exact agenda and purpose of the meeting are yet to be disclosed. However, it is anticipated that Merz will use this opportunity to discuss key issues and initiatives with the NRW state government.
