As Germany approaches its February 23, 2025 federal election, DW Africa plans a week-long tour to assess voter concerns. Key issues include a struggling economy, rising living costs, immigration laws, and the growing influence of the far-right AfD party. Voter dissatisfaction stems from the outgoing government’s inability to set clear spending targets. Political parties have nominated their chancellor candidates, while the electoral process involves indirect voting through parliament. Economic unease is palpable as many Germans fear for the future amidst these intersecting crises.
It has become customary every four years for DW Africa to conduct a nearly week-long tour of various regions in Germany to report on the federal election.
This election comes at a time when Germany is facing challenges over its economic slowdown, immigration laws, and the rising popularity of the far-right political party AfD.
