📝 Summary

German Chancellorial candidate from the Christian Democratic and Christian Social Union (CDU/CSU) bloc Friedrich Merz said a new government could be formed before Easter.

Catholics will celebrate Easter this year on April 20. Merz believes that the remaining time is enough to determine the composition of the government. “We now have a little less than eight weeks until Easter, and I think that’s enough time to create a government in Germany,” Merz said. Early elections to the Bundestag were held on Sunday, February 23. According to preliminary data, the CDU / CSU bloc leads, which gains about 29% of the votes. The second place is occupied by the Alternative for Germany, almost 20% of voters voted for it, local media reported. The current German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has already congratulated Merz on the victory of the conservative bloc. US President Donald Trump commented on the success of the CDU/CSU bloc. In his opinion, the high result of the conservatives is evidence that the people of Germany are tired of an agenda devoid of common sense.
