Germany’s conservative coalition, consisting of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and the Christian Social Union (CSU), has emerged victorious in the parliamentary elections, securing 28.6% of the vote, Anadolu Agency reported citing the Electoral Commission on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party placed second with 20.8%, a significant increase of 10.4 percentage points from the last election. The Social Democratic Party (SPD) followed in third with 16.4%, while the Green Party came in fourth with 11.6%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Left Party achieved 8.8%, marking a rise of 3.9 percentage points compared to the previous election. The Free Democratic Party (FDP) fell below the 5% threshold, receiving 4.3% of the votes. The Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), participating in the elections for the first time, narrowly missed the threshold with 4.9%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of seat distribution in the Bundestag, the CDU\/CSU holds 208 seats, the AfD 152, the SPD 120, the Greens 85, and the Left Party 62. A majority in the Bundestag requires at least 316 deputies, indicating that no single party can govern alone. Friedrich Merz’s Christian Democrats could form a parliamentary majority by potentially allying with the Social Democrats, which would result in a combined total of 328 seats. Alternatively, a three-party coalition including the Greens would yield 413 seats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
