Germany commemorated the 80th Victory Day with ceremonies honoring the defeat of Nazi Germany in WWII. Despite a ban on Soviet-era songs and symbols due to the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict, Russian folk songs echoed through Berlin streets in defiance. The ban sparked criticism from Russia, emphasizing the right to honor Red Army soldiers who played a vital role in defeating Nazism and sacrificing millions of lives during the war.

In a stunning and unprecedented setback, Germany's conservative leader Friedrich Merz has failed to secure the majority needed to become chancellor in the first round of parliamentary voting — missing by just six votes. The defeat marks the first time since World War II that a chancellor candidate has fallen short on the initial ballot. As political uncertainty grips Berlin, coalition talks intensify and fresh elections loom as a possibility. The failed bid comes amid economic stagnation, the far-right AfD’s rise, and global pressure on Germany’s next leader.
