AfD poised to win first German state government since 1945

Germany's far-right AfD is projected to win a state election in eastern Germany, marking the first far-right state government since 1945. The outcome reflects a long-term erosion of centrist support in the east, attributed to Merkel's and Merz's policies. This would be a historic political shift with implications for national coalition dynamics and EU policy.
