German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has acknowledged the challenges within the coalition government, urging his partners to remain committed until the end of the electoral term.

Speaking on the ZDF show "Maybrit Illner," Scholz emphasized the duty of those elected to govern, despite the ongoing disputes over the national budget and other issues.

He expressed frustration over the prolonged disagreements and the need for coalition partners to present their differing views extensively.

Scholz plans to hold confidential discussions with unions and business associations to address economic concerns, aiming for collaborative solutions.

The coalition faces pressure to resolve disputes, including those surrounding the pension package, which remains a contentious topic among the parties.
