Merkel's CDU To Hold Leadership Conference Today 1800CET

GERMANY

Wires reporting that Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Union (CDU) will hold a leadership conference this evening at 1800CET (1200ET, 1700BST).

  • Comes as CDU head and one of the two challengers for the centre-right's nomination to be the Union parties' chancellor candidate - Armin Laschet - says the CDU and its Bavarian sister party the CSU will 'soon settle' on a joint candidate to run to succeed Merkel.
  • Lars Petersen at Business Insider Germany tweets: "The CDU Federal Executive Board will meet digitally today for the extraordinary meeting at 6 p.m. LaschetvsSoeder. No agenda, no submission so far. But Laschet announces a solution." Markus Soeder, who is challenging Laschet for the Union parties' nomination, has also been invited.
  • Laschet's comments come after the Greens selected UK-educated lawyer Annalena Baerbock as their candidate for chancellor earlier today.
