💨 Abstract

In a snap German election, Friedrich Merz's conservatives won the majority, but coalition talks with the Social Democrats (SPD) will be tricky due to the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) and far-left parties' combined one-third of seats, which can block constitutional changes. Merz aims to form a government by Easter, seeking to address divisions over migration and strengthen Europe's independence from the U.S.
