CDU vice-general secretary Christina Stumpp reportedly steps down amid internal tensions

Reports indicate that CDU politician Christina Stumpp is leaving her post as vice-general secretary, though she initially denied the claim.

One outlet's reports that Christina Stumpp, a CDU vice-general secretary, is reportedly on the hunt for a new job following an alleged resignation. The rumor originated from Table Media chief editor Michael Bröcker, who claimed Stumpp would vacate her post and be succeeded by eastern MP Michael Hose. Stumpp responded on X, calling the report inaccurate and confirming she still holds the position.

The CDU has not issued any denial, and observers note a reportedly cool rapport between Stumpp and General Secretary Franziska Hoppermann. The episode echoes previous failed personnel reshuffles within the party, such as the aborted ouster of transport minister Patrick Schnieder. One outlet has asked Stumpp for comment but has not yet received a response.
