Frankfurt (Germany), May 6 (LaPresse) – "Merz is the first candidate for Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany to not be approved in the first round of voting. This shows the weak foundation on which the small coalition between CDU-CSU and SPD is built, rejected by the citizens." So wrote Alice Weidel, leader of the AfD, on X after CDU leader Friedrich Merz failed to secure a majority in the Bundestag in the first round of the chancellorship vote.
