Lovitură usturătoare pentru Friedrich Merz după victoriile AfD în alegeri: 55% dintre germani vor demisia cancelarului
Friedrich Merz has dismissed rumors of his resignation following electoral defeats for CDU, yet a recent poll indicates that most Germans want him to step down. The CDU faced significant losses against both the far-right AfD and the radical left in recent regional elections. A survey shows that 55% of respondents support Merz's resignation, while only 40% want him to stay. Merz is under immense pressure after CDU's historic low performance in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, failing to enter the regional assembly. Despite his declining popularity due to dissatisfaction with government reforms, Merz intends to remain in his position, although speculation about his future continues.
