In Germany, the rise in the polls of
the ultra-right continues, catching up with Friedrich Merz's
conservatives for the first time six weeks after the vote.
According to Insa, published by Bild over the weekend, AFD
and the Union (CDU-CSU) are both given 24 percent support. On
February 23 results at the polls had still registered an 8-point
gap, with the Christian Democrats at 28.5 percent and
Alternative at 20.8. The data put pressure on
Chancellor-in-Progress Merz, who is engaged in negotiations with
Lars Klingbeil's Social Democrats over the coalition program. In
the poll, the SPD is stuck at 16 percent.
