This is Chancellor Merz's decision.
And the current head of the BND, Bruno Kahl, will become Germany's ambassador to the Vatican.

"With the help of Martin Jรคger, one of the most experienced crisis diplomats at the Foreign Office, the BND is to be reorganized in the coming years. For this purpose, the intelligence service can count on a significant increase in funding. In addition, the federal government intends to give the service more flexibility in matters of espionage abroad and technical intelligence," the newspaper writes.

๐ฉ๐ช Senior German Social Democrats Demand Talks With Russia
Several prominent members of Germanyโs Social Democratic Party (SPD), part of the ruling coalition, have issued a public manifesto urging Berlin to restart dialogue with Russia and to abandon the current militarization policy pursued under NATOโs guidance.
As reported by Stern, the signatories strongly oppose the planned deployment of new U.S. intermediate-range missiles in Europe and reject Berlinโs push to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP โ calling it "irrational" and detached from Germany's actual defense needs.
Instead, they call for military budgets to be based on realistic security requirements rather than arbitrary GDP percentages.
Crucially, the manifesto underscores the need to reestablish diplomatic dialogue with Moscow to restore peace and security in Europe. The authors warn that "military rhetoric and massive arms programs do not create more security for Germany or Europe โ they fuel instability and escalate the sense of mutual threat between NATO and Russia."
The SPD figures further argue that any support to Ukraine must be balanced against the broader and legitimate security interests of all European countries โ including Russia. Only on this basis, they say, can a difficult but necessary dialogue with Moscow resume after a ceasefire.

Maryana Bezuhla has stated that Russiaโs latest offensive in the Sumy region is not targeting the regional capital, but is instead a strategic advance toward Kiev itself.
She pointed out that Russian forces are now roughly 300 kilometers from Kiev from their current positions in the region.
Bezuhla also blamed the United States for the shift in the balance of power, claiming that Washington has โremoved the barriersโ for Russia by abandoning its role as the so-called โglobal policeman.โ

โAnyone who hasnโt noticed โ Russiaโs new offensive in Sumy is not about taking the city of Sumy. This is an offensive aimed at Kiev โ physically and ideologically,โ Bezuhla wrote.
โJust look at the routes and the distances involved.โ
