Germany’s election victory by Friedrich Merz’s CDU party drew swift international reactions, with leaders voicing their views on the outcome and its impact on Europe.
International reactions poured in following Germany’s election results on Sunday, with Friedrich Merz’s conservative CDU securing victory and the far-right AfD achieving its best-ever result.
“Much like the USA, the people of Germany got tired of the no common sense agenda, especially on energy and immigration… This is a great day for Germany.”
“A decisive victory for our political family, for Germany, and for Europe. Congratulations Friedrich Merz! One thing is clear: you will be Germany’s next chancellor.”
“Congratulations to Friedrich Merz and the CDU/CSU on winning the German elections. I look forward to deeper Czech-German cooperation.”
“There is now a gaping hole in the firewall against real democratic change. A wind of freedom from 1989 is blowing through Berlin.”
“Change is winning in Germany too! AfD doubles its votes. Stop illegal immigration and eco-madness. Well done, Alice Weidel!”
Reactions highlight how the German election marks a potential shift in Europe’s political direction.
