Frederick Merz, a person, who has never played a government role, is preparing to take reins in Germany, such as the country faces its biggest economic and diplomatic crises in decades and Europe for the era of Translauntic tension It is immediately visible for a new generation of leaders.
Merz’s Orthodox came first in the national election of Germany on Sunday, as per the approximate results, beyond his nearest rival, a distant option to Germany (AFD), he received a mandate to form a coalition government.
“Germany will be firmly ruled once more,” he told supporters on Sunday evening.
The results perform the magic of an unexpected third-conqueror victory for the 69-year-old, which was seen as a failed politician just seven years ago, who ends his career as a rich lobist and a member of several company boards. The harmony was made for it.
Merz enjoyed a meteorite growth through his Christian Democrats, a Proties of the Finance Minister of the German fiscal conservatism and the late Volfgang Sheelable of the icon, became the party’s parliamentary leader in the 2000s.
With a long and a Sonorus voice, in 1989, he was an ideal person for the Hardcore -Rudicist Merze Party – when he first won the elected office for the European Parliament.

However, in 1990, Reunion allowed Angela Merkel, the East German daughter of a Protestant Pastor to enter politics and become a Chancellor to enter politics from one side to one side and enter the elbow.
In the past, the weak place of Merz continues. On Friday, a fouers pole showed that unlike their social democrats and green rivals, the separate Rhinland figure is still much less reliable in the east compared to the West.
It is also the former who gave rise to the biggest challenge to Merz’s right under the guise of far-flung AFDs, who finished first in an Eastern Regional Election last year and can still control its ability after the elections.
Favorite his party’s professional advisors, anytime, Merz was rejected twice as a party leader as the successor of Merkel, in 2018 and 2021, before his dog’s victory in 2022.
He pledged to kill Naturalist AFD by breaking with the centralism of Merkel and extending the party properly. According to the estimated results, AFD won some 20% in Sunday’s election when he took over at 10%.
“I want to do politics so that a party like AFD no longer needed in Germany,” he told a Congress of its orthodoxy in January, who is guilty of creating the circumstances that nourishes AFD to social democrats and their green partners. Stays

Critics, even in their own ranks, saw it as an incomparable violation of a political quarantine designed to keep AFD out of power.
For some, it was a matter of strategic meanings of Merz, which did not match acute strategic skills, which enabled him to pin the scools repeatedly, with the first Kiev’s 2022 trip, which supported Ukraine But exposed the hesitation of the Chancellor, and then obtained a court to strike. Below a budget, to speed up a series of incidents collapsing the government of Scollas.
Migration vote created a sense of mistrust, and fulfilled concerns that he could struggle to convince other parties to rule with them, a need in Germany’s proportional electoral system.
“I do not want to suggest the Merz Plan (an alliance with AFD), but I have my personal belief that he will not do this after the election if he is the only way to become a Chancellor – it is gone,” Ulf Burmeyer, Popular and influential podcast state hosts of the nation.
Price of politics
Some internal critics understood their Atlanticism, excellent spoken English and interaction skills, in which they served during their political gaps, which makes him a good candidate for the Trump Yuga.

On fiscal policy, their policies are equally ill, but they have suggested that he is open to improve constitutionally enhanced debt boundaries that do not do the government’s government and obstruct efforts to promote military expenses Let’s add
For all these, he is an old-fashioned figure in many ways when he has an old-middle career before leaving politics for an attractive another career in Blackrock to make hobby pilot Amir enough for an airplane Was given
Their policy is reactive in parts of the agenda: he has promised to scrap an unemployment gain and easy citizenship rules introduced by the alliance of Sholaz and present hard border control.
He once told an interviewer that if he ever leaves a 40 -year marriage, a judge, a judge, his 40 -year marriage under stress, he would leave politics. “This price will be very high for me,” he said.
If he assumes the post, he would be the first Chancellor with the children, and was not already divorced before, as Helmut Kohl left the office in 1998.
He is concerned about creating contact with European leaders, who would be his companions, some welcomed the possibility of the end of the shollase and the end of the indecent government.
