The winner of the elections in Germany, Merz, plans to distance from the USA
Friedrich Merz, who is set to become the next Chancellor of Germany after his opposition conservatives won the national elections on Sunday, has promised to help provide Europe with “real independence” from the USA. The 69-year-old Merz will face complex and lengthy coalition negotiations after the far-right party “Alternative for Germany” (AfD) secured a historic second place. Major parties are excluding cooperation with the AfD, which enjoys support from prominent figures in the USA, including Elon Musk. Merz, who has no experience in public office, is preparing to become Chancellor at a time when the largest economy in Europe is in decline, society is divided over migration issues, and the country’s security is caught between confrontational USA and assertive Russia and China. Following his victory, Merz sharply criticized the USA, condemning “utterly outrageous” comments from Washington during the campaign and comparing them to hostile interference from Russia.
