Germany’s recent election drew an 82% voter turnout – a number unheard of here in the States. The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and Christian Social Union (CSU) sister parties clinched a plurality with 28.5% of the vote, while the right-wing Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), founded just 12 years ago, captured a striking 20.9%. Christiane von Czettritz und Neuhaus and Sibel Öztürk-Bastanoglu from the Hanns Seidel Foundation joined Karla Jones, Vice President of the ALEC Center for International Freedom, to dissect these outcomes and detail the coalition-building process poised to steer Germany’s future.
Special Guests: Christiane von Czettritz und Neuhaus and Sibel Öztürk-Bastanoglu.
