Germany’s Merz says Europe can no longer rely on US protection

The next Chancellor of Germany cautioned that Europe and the United States could not rely on it unconditionally, on the eve of an election where the country’s anti -Russian, immigrant opposition parties are about to achieve the best results in its history.

The Center-Right Christian Democratic Union leader Fredricich Merge, which says in the survey, says that the top two nuclear weapons states of Europe are looking for deep protection from the United Kingdom and France instead of Berlin.

He commented because he suspected that under President Donald Trump, the United States would fully adopt its NATO agreement, the basic basis of the Translatantic Alliance.

Asked if he would keep “all things bet” as he would comply with five mutual defense promises of US President NATO, Merge said: “Donald Trump has to be fully prepared that Donald Trump will no longer fully accept the promise of fulfillment. NATO agreementThe “

The center-right leader urged the Europeans to “least make it possible to protect it.. Their own continent” when he proposed to negotiate with London and Paris “UK and France’s least nuclear sharing, or at least nuclear protection in our case May applicable ”.

This clear comment refers to European capital’s deep concern over Washington’s confusing commitment to the protection of the continent in a week when the United States was removed to cure relations with Russia and blamed Ukraine for 2022 aggression in Kremlin.

On Friday, the German Ministry of Home Affairs has warned a Russian chaos to influence the promotion of election through fake videos spread on social media by Hamburg and Lipjig.

Lipjig and Hamburg security agencies have identified multiple sewido-media sites and social media accounts as part of the network, further strengthening Russian interference in democratic processes.

Merge’s comments also in the opinion survey that the German party’s rebel far -right alternative is ready to secure fifth of the vote, doubles its score in the last competition.

German mainstream politicians were terrified last week when US Vice-President JD Vans revealed it, unless Cooperation with the far right parties of Europe’s political mainstream“America can do nothing for you”.

Vans later met AFD’s co-leader Alice Weadale, but not with the left Chancellor of the country’s center Olaf Sholz at the Munich Protection Conference.

Outgoing Economics Minister Green Candidate Robert Habake has portrayed the election and the government, perhaps as the last opportunity to the far right Germany. “If we do not solve the problems in the next four years, the right -wing population will be endless,” he said Friday.

A Forceer survey on Friday put 20 percent to the CDU, 21 percent of Afghan and Sholz’s SPD 15 percent – it has been moving towards the worst defeat since 1887.

The work of forming a government through AFD’s strong performance will become more difficult with which he has promised not to partner.

This may be even more challenging if a new team led by Liberals, far left di -link and leftist Sahara Wagenknech further enhances the Parliament over five percent of Germany’s election.

With AFD’s growing confidence indicating, Weidedle posted a compilation that won the high-level international support team on Friday. The video is featured in Vans, the world’s wealthiest people and Trump’s confident, Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Arban and leader of the far right Freedom Party in Austria.

On the contrary, the party, whose ex -leader once dismissed the Nazi time as a “bird splash”, had earlier avoided far -right right politicians like France’s Marine Le Pen.

This enthusiasm of AFD enhances immigration and deep dissatisfaction with Sholz’s government will identify an intense swing on the right in the largest economy of the Eurozone, which has jumped in high energy prices and competition from cheap Chinese manufacturers.

“Market and election surveys are deceptive about the selection,” asset manager Tomas Wailadek, chief European economist at the asset manager T. Roy Price, says a blocking mentions minorities risk that will prevent reforms and possible to hit the Euro potentially.

On Friday, 69 -year -old Merz, who left politics for a decade after losing the power struggle against party rival Angela Merkel, also emphasized the scale of economic challenges. Former Blackrock Germany chairman said, “The most important bet on the future is that we martial our power to enhance this economy.”

Merge also expressed his concern this week that he was hoping that the United States remained as “democracy and not in any authoritarian population… It may be that America will enter into the long -term unrest and this popularity, the president’s this autocratic behavior continues Will be “.
