Germany’s Friedrich Merz Secures Chancellor Seat in Dramatic Second Round Reversal; AfD Furious [Video]

Germany’s Friedrich Merz Secures Chancellor Seat in Dramatic Second Round Reversal; AfD Furious

Friedrich Merz has secured the chancellorship of Germany in a dramatic second-round vote, overcoming a shocking first-round defeat earlier in the day. With 325 votes in his favor, Merz surpassed the required 316 majority, averting a constitutional crisis. His unexpected first-round loss, which marked the first time in postwar history a chancellor candidate failed to win, had sent shockwaves through German politics. The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has expressed outrage at Merz’s victory, demanding his resignation and calling for fresh elections. #FriedrichMerz #MerzForChancellor #CDULeader #GermanyElections #MerzLive #FriedrichMerzSpeech #ChancellorMerz #GermanyPolitics #FriedrichMerzCDU #Merz2025 #WhoIsFriedrichMerz #FriedrichMerzInterview #GermanyChancellorRace #MerzAnnouncement #MerzVsAfD #Germany ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.194~GR.124~

Germany in Turmoil | Friedrich Merz Fails To Become Chancellor In Embarrassing Parliamentary Defeat

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. #FriedrichMerz #MerzForChancellor #CDULeader #GermanyElections #MerzLive #FriedrichMerzSpeech #ChancellorMerz #GermanyPolitics #FriedrichMerzCDU #Merz2025 #WhoIsFriedrichMerz #FriedrichMerzInterview #GermanyChancellorRace #MerzAnnouncement #MerzVsAfD
