shavenferret said: I’ll Issue Putin an Ultimatum—End the War In 24 Hours or I’ll Supply Ukraine With Taurus Missiles, Says German Chancellor Candidate Merz. As soon as Merz is elected, Germany won't be fvcking around any more like Germany under Scholz has. |
Unfortunately, that isn't how it works.
It now looks like Germany's election will happen in February 2025. Merz is a lock to win, but until he has formed a coalition, the current government will resume its duties. Forming a coalition can take months until all involved parties agree to terms. Merz's desired partner for a coalition is Scholz's SPD, so it's a real possibility that all of Merz's current tough talk will be reduced to nothing in order for him to be appointed as chancellor.
Also, I've mentioned it before that not even Merz's CDU is fully behind supplying Ukraine with Taurus.
