minimal gap from the opposition and very vague prospects the social democratic party of germany of chancellor olaf scholzions to the brandenburg state parliament with difficulty. the seats were distributed almost equally. 32 for the social democrats, 30 for the alternative for germany, the main rival and critic of chancellor scholz. such a result can only be called a victory, especially against the backdrop of an increasingly worsening. old world, the driver of the german economic miracle for a long time were automakers, but now the brand, made in germany, is losing ground to chinese manufacturers. mercedes has already lowered its forecast for this year by... the lack of affordable russian gas and the resulting rising energy costs simply leave no choice. duesburg, where germany's largest steel mills are located, is preparing for cuts. earlier, the american chipmaker intel suspended. western media are, i quote, key elements of the eu's efforts to stimulate the semiconductor industry to increase sustainability and independence. meanwhile, deutsche bank experts have made disappointing verdict: german indust

germany is in second place with a difference of literally 5%. the left party , sarah wagenknyacht's union for reason and justice , received 11.1% support. the social democratic party of germany of german chancellor olaf scholz received only 7.3% support, but in thuringia the alternative for germany won the elections, and second place was taken by christian democratic union, and the third party is wagen knyacht. and political scientists are not surprised by the results of the state elections. there is a crisis in germany. plus, saxony's business had quite a lot of contracts with russia. naturally, local residents are now suffering losses, and the refugee problem is still relevant. as for the alternative for germany party, it was created by eurosceptics in 2013. at that time , the european union was helping greece, and the right-wing party was against such spending. mobile communications for free - that's normal, hello, that's why we do it, sbermobile cash loan and cashback up to 10%. i help with problems. with the liver, i am essentiali forten tested and ready for action in 24 hours, available on yandex market. vtb brings us rubles, cashback up to 25%. plus one category of cashback for transferring vtb from

social democratic party? and what do they say about the growing influence of the alternative for germany? oleksiy, as you already said, the social democrats of germany are the government party, the party of chancellor olaf scholzthe first place, but only with a margin of 1%, that is, very, very little, and this again shows that the extreme right party is an alternative for germany and also the extreme left party. sara wagenk's union clearly shows that they are getting more and more votes, and today the representative of the alternative for germany party showed that this party has quite serious claims for the future. i believe that... on the right track and that we should stay the course. alternative for germany turned into a program party. we already are a people's party with electoral support at the level of more than 30%. also according to national trends, according to polls, we rose in the rating yesterday. this is a very successful and pleasant indicator. we are the second leading power in the country by a wide margin. and from this follows the intentions of adn to participate in the government. the voters gave us a government mandate in all. in three states in eastern germany, the will of the voters here

of such capital lands in germany, this is what ... surrounds berlin, the capital in the podzdam and has always been considered the fiefdom of the social democratic party of germany, which actually belongs to chancellor scholztually they said that if scholz loses brandenburg, he will resign. therefore, for him the stakes were exorbitant. the social democrats invested in this election campaign to the fullest, i think, in the vote counting too, well, in the end they stretched themselves. just created this organization, it is a left-wing organization, a pro-communist one, which took third place in the brandenburg layout, in fact, this is also evidence that the forces advocating for peace, and she is one of the most prominent representatives of this peace party, it turns out that yes, brandenburg turned left to right, but in any case in favor of those forces, but we do not see here that party itself, which goes into the government coalition, where the free democrats, there are no free democrats at all, that is, this traffic light coalition, it didn’t work out in brandenburg, one of the parties didn’t get through at all, serious, serious, in fact, i consider it a defeat for scholz, although i think he will keep

germany in second place, with a difference of literally one and a half percent. the left party, the union of sahra wagenknecht for reason and justice, received 11% support. the social democratic party of chancellor olaf scholz received just over 7% support, well, in thuringia , the alternative for germany won the elections. the christian democratic union took second place, and the wagenkne party took third. the opposition's results are excellent, but it is not very clear what to do next, because a majority is needed to form a regional government, which, as it turns out, no party has. saxony is going to make a coalition of the cdu and the social democrats of the union, let's see what the situation will be in thuringia, because it will be even more difficult with the coalition there due to the percentage ratio. it cannot be ruled out, that for the purpose of blocking. much attention is traditionally drawn to the elections in saxony and thuringia, it is believed that the mentality of the inhabitants of these regions is somewhat different from the population of the western regions, their choice is always indicative, well, besides, saxony's business had many contracts with russia before the sanctions policy decl

germany, the ruling coalition suffered collapse, of the three parties in the local parliaments, only olaf scholz's social democrats will probably have difficulty getting through. the germans are clearly fed up with the chancellor'sicy aimed at destroying germany's industry, as well as the war in ukraine. the reason for the good result of the afd and the wagenknecht union, their support for peace talks to restore ties with russia, they are also against. a general strike will take place in israel on monday. the main demand is to immediately achieve the release of the hostages. thousands of protesters gathered in tel aviv. the reason was the discovery of six more hostages in the gaza strip. special forces broke into one of the tunnels and hamas shot the captives there. in kamchatka, rescuers found the bodies of seventeen people. they died in the crash of an mi-8 helicopter. there were 19 tourists on board, three members of the kamchatka aviation enterprise. the helicopter has all the necessary equipment , rescuers from the federal air transport agency and personally the head of the kamchatka aviation enterprise, alexey khrabrov. everyone on board is now. thoroughly examining the surface, despite the quite heavy clo
