Germany's Self-Destruct Pact: Merz Pushes Europe to the Brink
The Duran: Episode 2510Germany is in crisis. Friedrich Merz and the CDU are pushing Germany toward confrontation with Russia, slashing social services to fund a massive military buildup, and picking fights with both the United States and China — all while Germany's industrial economy collapses to 2008 financial crisis levels. Alexander Mercouris and Alex Christoforou of The Duran break down how Germany is abandoning the very foundations it was built on, why the CDU is united behind this self-destructive course, and whether stoking fear of Russia is the establishment's last desperate move to block the AfD from taking power. Is Germany heading toward a complete political and economic breakdown?
