GERMANY, CDU Plots MERZ Removal, Merkel Lurks in the Shadows
The Duran: Episode 2534Germany's political crisis is deepening as Bild reports that CDU insiders are actively discussing the removal of Chancellor Friedrich Merz through a no-confidence vote, with North Rhine-Westphalia Minister President Hendrik Wust emerging as the preferred replacement in what Alexander Mercouris bluntly describes as a political assassination in all but name. Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris of The Duran trace the roots of the plot back to Merz's unprecedented failed Bundestag vote and raise the question no one in the German establishment wants to answer: whether Angela Merkel, who recently re-emerged demanding real authority as a condition for any diplomatic role, is quietly pulling the strings behind the curtain. With CDU ratings sliding toward existential territory and the AfD gaining ground across Germany, is replacing Merz a genuine rescue plan or simply rearranging the deck chairs on a ship that has already taken on too much water?
