On Wednesday, Merkel's coalition agreed to make what Reuters called "small changes" to the civil partnerships rules. For example, the words "life partner" will be included instead of just "spouse." But the chancellor's spokesman said Germany will not be following in Ireland's footsteps anytime soon.
"Today was an important milestone in dismantling discrimination and the chancellor is pleased about that," Merkel spokesman Steffen Seibert told Reuters. "But same-sex marriages are not a goal of this government."
