On Sunday, February 23, when the results of the parliamentary elections in Germany came on the same line, which was expected. The alliance of the Conservative Democratic Union Party and the Christian Social Union (CDU/CSU) has got 28.5% of the total votes. This alliance also needs an alliance to form a government. Frederick Merge is leading CDU/CSU. They will need the Left’s party with SPD to form the government, but it may take time to agreed. The special thing is that Frederick Merge did not even wait for the final result and talked about taking ‘freedom’ from America.

This future stand, which is counted as America’s closest partner in European countries, has caught everyone’s attention. One reason for this is that the image of Frederick Merge is that of a leader who is considered an Atlanticist- that is, a leader who advocates a close alliance on political, economic and defense issues between European countries and America.

The question is whether this attitude of Frederick Merge can change anything for America, Europe, NATO and Germany itself? What is the reason for this stand? Before considering these questions, it is known in this explanar how the election was held in Germany and who has got public opinion.

German Election: What are the results?

The parliamentary elections held in Germany were mainly four parties.

Frederick Merge has not aligned with AFD in second place, but he is looking towards SPD for majority figures. The Parliament of Germany, called Bundestag, has a total of 630 members. At least 316 MPs are needed to form the government.

According to the initial results so far, the CDU/CSU alliance has won 208 seats with 28.6 percent of the votes. At the same time, AFD has got 152 seats and 20.8 percent votes. This result is excellent for AFD as the party has doubled its vote percentage compared to the previous election. At the same time, Scolz’s party SPD has got 120 seats. If CDU/CSU aligns with SPD, which is called “Grand Alliance”, then the government will be easily formed with 328 seats.

What has Frederick Merge said?

Frederick Merge said in a debate after the election, “I never thought that I would have to say something in a TV show, but after Donald Trump’s comment given last week … it is clear that this government (Trump government (Trump Sarkar ) It does not care much about the fate of Europe. ”

“My biggest priority will be to strengthen Europe as soon as possible so that, by taking one step, we can really gain freedom from the United States.”

Why is Germany going to take this stand in the leadership of Frederick Merge? The deep domestic insecurity produced by Trump’s comeback is a reason behind this.

Germany feels unsafe from Donald Trump’s attitude?

There are two reasons for the trouble of Frederick Merge from Trump’s attitude- one is at the level of politics inside the country and the other about Germany’s Kuvat at the international level. In the last few weeks, people like Alan Musk and US Vice President JD Vance supported the anti -Merge’s anti -party AFD. It was widely seen as American intervention in the country’s election.

At the same time, the efforts of the Trump government to end the Ukraine-Russia war have created concern in European countries. They feel that the Washington is getting closer to Moscow at the cost of the Transington Trans-Atlantic alliance. Trump is talking about a peace agreement with Russia without taking European countries. Amidst these turmoil, French President Emmanuel Macron visited the White House on Monday. At the same time, the Prime Minister of Britain will go to Washington on Thursday.

In such a situation, Frederick Merge realizes that Germany is isolated. He says that Germany should have also been there this week. Germany is one of the three major powers of Europe along with France and Britain. Merge says that the biggest priority for Germany is that he again emerged as a big player.

Germany also knows that like France and England, it is not a nuclear power country. If Trump takes back his active soldiers from Germany with the slogan of ‘America First’, then the feeling of insecurity will definitely increase. In such a situation, Frederick Merge had suggested last week that he would consider joining hands with France and Britain to create a European nuclear umbrella at the place of America’s nuclear guarantee.

But it is easy to say and hear, it is difficult to land it on the ground. To convert this idea into truth, a lot of funds are needed. The way Germany is currently going through economic depression, it will be very difficult to do so. He will also need together on this issue from his future government’s ally party.

At the end of the explanner, we tell you big things about Frederick Merge in some points.
