Merz și-a anulat discuția la telefon cu Trump după ce președintele SUA a salutat victoria AfD: „Faceți Germania din nou măreață”

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz canceled a scheduled phone call with US President Donald Trump shortly after Trump praised the far-right AfD party's electoral success. Merz's spokesperson did not provide a reason for the cancellation, stating it was not due to scheduling conflicts. Trump celebrated AfD's victory on his platform, suggesting a rise in populism in Germany. The cancellation coincided with a heated exchange in the Bundestag, where Merz clashed with AfD leader Alice Weidel, who criticized his government and claimed it was failing. Weidel asserted that former voters of the SPD are now supporting AfD, indicating a shift in political allegiance.
