Germany: Merz Rules Out AfD Coalition in Election Debate
The Spin
Left narrative
As the election approaches, it’s vital for Germany to prioritize stability and moderation in governance. With the far-right on the march, especially being encouraged by the likes of Vance and Musk, it's clear that their divisive rhetoric and extreme positions pose a real threat to democratic institutions. Voters should support centrist parties that advocate for unity and practical solutions to the challenges facing our country, rather than giving in to extremism.
Right narrative
Germany is at an inflection point. Years of weak border policies have enabled millions of undocumented migrants to flood in, leading to spikes in crime and social unrest. Meanwhile, the economy is stagnating under high taxes, crippling regulations, and unsustainable welfare policies. The ruling elite can no longer put globalist ideals over cries for stronger borders and economic reform, a message that will once again become all too clear on results day.
