Cichocki: Merz may open the door to AfD power instead of saving Germany

Commentator Marek A. Cichocki argues that Friedrich Merz, presented as the remedy for Germany's political crisis, may paradoxically accelerate the collapse of the established political order. In his view, Merz's leadership could ease the path to power for Alternative for Germany (AfD). Cichocki contends that Merz may become the gravedigger of Germany as it has been known.
