- Berlin mayor drops reelection bid over blackout lie
Berlin mayor Kai Wegner announced he will not run for reelection after being accused of misrepresenting his actions during a January blackout. The blackout, caused by a far-left arson attack on energy infrastructure, left neighborhoods without power or heating for four days. Wegner's conservative CDU faces declining support in Berlin, with the party losing ground to The Left, the Greens, and AfD.
