72 percent of the Germans are for them.
In July 32 percent of the Germans gave a affirmative opinion on the work of Chancellor Friedrich Merz, and 64 percent were of a different opinion. However, satisfaction has now fallen to 25 percent, which, according to the head of the Fors Institute, Manfred Guellner, is due to increasing concerns about the country's economical situation. As many as 60 percent of respondents consider the economy to be Germany's most serious problem, an increase of six percent points compared to October.
In the latest organization poll, The Money runs the AfD with 26 percent support, ahead of the CDU/CSU chapede block, which gained 24 percent. The following places included the SPD with a score of 14 percent and the Greens and the Left – 12 percent each. The Left has peculiar support among young voters – 39 percent of students and students declare their willingness to vote for this group.
Friedrich Merz has held the office of Chancellor since 6 May, leading the coalition of CDU/CSU and SPD. He replaced Social politician Olaf Scholz in this position.
Merz has fallen to the right?
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz late called on Syrian refugees who had found shelter in Germany during the civilian war to return to their homeland. He announced his cooperation with the president of Syria, erstwhile rebel leader Ahmed ash-Shara, arguing that the civilian war had come to an end, and thus the reasons for asylum had ceased.
Merz's position is simply a reaction to the expanding force from the utmost right-wing alternate for Germany (AfD), which demands forced Syrian return. The Chancellor's tougher approach is to shift his group to the right on migration, but has not yet yielded the expected results, as AfD is inactive gaining support and in fresh polls ahead of the CDU/CSU chapetal block.
Friedrich Merz blames the increase in support of AfD for Angela Merkel's migration policy, recognising it as 1 of the main mistakes of erstwhile governments. In the summer, he stressed that his group was trying to “corrigise” the approach of its predecessor. The announcement of the repatriation of Syrian refugees is 1 of the most far-reaching actions of this shift in migration policy.
