In the recent German parliamentary elections, early projections show the conservative bloc CDU/CSU leading with around 29% of the votes, followed by the far-right AfD at over 20% and Chancellor Scholz's SPD at 16%. The snap election follows the collapse of a coalition led by Scholz's SPD. CDU candidate Friedrich Merz is positioned to become the next chancellor but faces a challenge in forming a stable coalition, particularly with the AfD being widely shunned by other parties. The AfD's Weidel argues for the viability of a coalition despite opposition from major parties.
Alice Weidel, leader of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) acknowledged the electorate's desire for political change, proposing a CDU-AfD coalition as a potential government solution.
Friedrich Merz, the CDU candidate, emphasized the need for Europe to pursue independence, critiquing figures like Trump and Musk, which reflects a broader strategy for Germany's future.
