The CDU's current lead in polls does not guarantee an end to the citizenship reforms, as they will still need coalition partners to move forward with repealing them.
Germany's proportional representation voting system necessitates coalition governance, making it unlikely for the CDU to form a government that can repeal the new citizenship law.
Political scientist Kai Arzheimer notes that cooperation with the far-right AfD, while often discussed, is seen as controversial and unlikely at a federal level.
CDU’s party constitution prohibits collaboration with the AfD and the Left, which complicates their ability to form a coalition capable of repealing the citizenship law.
