Скачать или смотреть Policy Voices | Decoding the German elections: Can Merz stop the rise of the AfD?

The results are in and Germany chose its new chancellor. To the surprise of no one, Friedrich Merz will succeed Olaf Scholz and Europe can finally get to work after being on hold since November.

The challenges are plenty and Germany’s new chancellor has his plate full: not only he has to deliver on migration and the economy, he must do so to avoid even bigger electoral gains for the far-right AfD next time around.

In today’s episode of Policy Voices, host Catarina Vila Nova speaks with Liana Fix, Fellow for Europe at the Council on Foreign Relations. Fix is a historian and political scientist and an expert in German and European foreign and security policy based in Washington.
