Roberta Metsola stated, "What happens in Germany in the next four years has a major impact on the next four years of the European Union," highlighting the interconnectedness between German elections and the EU's future.
Metsola expressed that the recent gains of far-right parties, especially in eastern Germany, are alarming, detailing that the AfD topped Thuringia elections with 32.8% and came second in Saxony.
Metsola emphasized the need for pro-European parties in Germany to unite, underscoring that rising anger over inflation and migration is drawing voters toward populist parties.
Polling reveals a concerning trend with the AfD receiving 17% to 19% support and the BSW potentially garnering 8%, indicating a shift towards populism among German voters.
