A desperate Angela Merkel worked hard to retain her "job" as Chancellor of Germany, after she had been dropped by her former Coalition partners. Yesterday they reached agreement on the main conditions for another Coalition "deal" !
What conditions will Merkel be obliged to accept finally in a new deal with Martin Schulz and his SPD party ? How will this affect not only German Politics but also future EU Policies and EU Treaties ? These key points still need to be ironed out.
The outline deal will have to be approved by the SPD delegates and later by the Party members. A new Government for Germany is expected to be anounced in March.
In 2015 after Merkel's spontaneous "open-armed welcome" to miserable refugees fleeing the Middle East war, EU countries were flooded with more than a million immigrants. Germany willingly selected huge numbers of qualified workers which it needed for its factories.
However, electors in many EU countries, including those in Germany, now want less immigrants. Added to this there is also the wish that EU frontiers are closed to improve National Security.
Can and will Merkel satisfy all the wishes of both German and EU electors ?
