Repp believes German citizens have “lost trust” in the federal government following the far-right AfD’s gains in elections in Berlin and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Pressure is also mounting on Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who suffered major defeats two weeks ago in regional elections in Saxony-Anhalt.
