Angela Merkel to run for 4th term as Chancellor, politician says

German Chancellor Angela Merkel will run for a fourth term in elections next year, a senior politician in her party told CNN on Tuesday.

"She will run for Chancellor," Norbert Roettgen of the Christian Democratic Union said on CNN's "Amanpour." "She is absolutely determined, willing, and ready to contribute to strengthen the international liberal order. But we can't see the Chancellor or Germany as last man standing."
