German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz lamented a “bitter” defeat after his centre-left Social Democrats slumped to a heavy loss in Sunday’s national elections.
“The election result is poor and I bear responsibility,” Scholz told SPD party members, while congratulating conservative opposition leader Friedrich Merz, whose party came out on top.
