FRANKFURT, July 19 (Reuters) - German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said on Sunday he may now potentially have an opportunity for changes to his cabinet, a statement coming after the resignation of a top politician over the weekend.
"It could be an opportunity," he said told broadcaster ZDF when asked about potential cabinet changes.
"This could be an opportunity to reconsider the composition of the federal government," he said.
