德国总理弗里德里希·默茨自2025年5月就任以来,不到一年半已陷入党内信任危机1。在基督教民主联盟于萨克森-安哈尔特州选举中遭受惨败的背景下,默茨正积极争取党内支持12。他计划在梅克伦堡-前波美拉尼亚州选举(9月20日)后召集党执委会,向党内领导人提出是否仍支持他的问题1。为准备这一行动,默茨已取消了原定赴纽约参加联合国大会的行程1。
党内质疑声浪不断上升。德国教育部长卡琳·普里恩直言:"我认为许多人感到总理——我们基民盟/基社盟——缺乏必要的同情心"1。民调数据进一步反映了困境:在梅克伦堡-前波美拉尼亚州,基民盟的支持率仅为7%,可能创造该党州选历史最低纪录1。与此同时,被列为"确认的右翼极端主义"的德国另选党在萨克森-安哈尔特州选举中获胜1。
尽管8位基民盟州长发表联合声明表示仍支持默茨,但这未能平息党内关于领导力变更的讨论1。目前,基民盟尚未找到可行的替代领导人2。
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is confronting a significant challenge to his leadership within the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) less than 16 months into his tenure 12. The crisis stems from the CDU's poor electoral performance in Saxony-Anhalt, where the party suffered a decisive defeat to the Alternative for Germany (AfD), classified as a "confirmed right-wing extremist" organization 1. In the upcoming Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania state election scheduled for September 20, CDU polling stands at merely 7 percent, potentially marking the party's lowest result in a state election 1.
To address the mounting pressure, Merz has scheduled a party executive committee meeting for Sunday evening following the September 20 election, where he plans to directly ask 22 party leaders whether they continue to support his leadership 1. The chancellor has canceled his planned attendance at the United Nations General Assembly in New York to focus on this domestic political situation 1. Education Minister Karin Prien articulated the underlying discontent within the party, stating: "I believe many people feel that the chancellor—we in the CDU/CSU—lack the necessary empathy" 1.
While eight CDU state governors released a joint statement reaffirming their support for Merz, this declaration has failed to quell internal discussions about changing the party's leadership 1. Despite the turmoil, the CDU currently lacks a viable alternative leader to replace him 2.
