Ulrich Vosgerau wrote that Friedrich Merz's politics would bring even less support to the Union in the next federal elections than in the previous ones. At the same time, in his estimation, mainly the few critics of this policy would lose their mandates and thus have no influence in the future. As a comparison, Vosgerau cited the "Berliner Kreis," a group of Union members of parliament who opposed Angela Merkel's political line after the federal elections in 2017. Nevertheless, that line continued; after the 2021 elections, the circle largely disappeared as a group of members of parliament. To his recollection, only Klaus-Peter Willsch still had a mandate. Vosgerau described the development as a vicious circle: The attempt to correct Union politics through voter decisions effectively brings about the opposite and further facilitates the decline. #Bundestagswahl #Union #Politik (translated)

Ondřej Černý commented on Volodymyr Zelensky's interview with Piers Morgan, in which he was asked whether Ukraine is losing the US as an ally. He wrote that the West still does not fully understand the significance of Zelensky's words that it is essential for the country to survive. Even if the Russians were to succeed in capturing Zelensky, which Černý did not consider likely, someone else would lead Ukraine, in his opinion. He added that some of Zelensky's toughest critics are the Ukrainians themselves and that the debate is, in his view, not about the president's tired appearance or about a cult of personality. Černý wrote that as long as Ukrainians have access to knives, axes, or sticks that can be used as weapons, the Russians will not dominate the country. In conclusion, he used a derogatory term for Russians. #Ukrajina #Zelenskyy #politika (translated)
