“ “I think the outcome of the [German] election was that broadly pro-European parties did very well. I mean, it was the far-left and the far-right that lost significantly, and then you had a shift from the incumbent CDU to the more pro-European, at least in fiscal terms, Greens and the SPD.”
“ This is a generational change after 16 years of one person in power, I think for that reason alone, Germans are very unsure about who would be the proper successor to Angela Merkel.”
“ The Greens can be happy that they've improved in terms of results since the last election cycle, but they definitely did not fulfill expectations. Baerbock didn't meet the moment. At one point, the party was leading the pack, there were far greater expectations for them.”
