AfD câștigă un nou scrutin regional în Germania, sporind presiunea asupra cancelarului Friedrich Merz • Newsweek România
The CDU party, led by Chancellor Friedrich Merz, faces alarming results in regional elections, with the far-right AfD party gaining significant ground. AfD is projected to win 38% in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, while CDU struggles at 5%. In Berlin, the left-wing Die Linke leads with 26%. Merz acknowledges the CDU's poor performance as a disaster but remains committed to essential reforms for Germany's future, including economic revitalization and immigration control. He emphasizes the need for strength and patience in implementing these changes, despite the challenges ahead. Merz's leadership is under scrutiny following recent electoral defeats, raising concerns about the CDU's direction and public sentiment.
