Who are the losers and winners and what does the result tell us about the political mood in the country? Which parties will be able and willing to form a coalition government? How long will it take to do this and how stable is it likely to be? What should Europe expect from the next German chancellor and government? Will they be willing to play a stronger leadership role in the EU? What does the result mean for the relationship with other key players in the Union? Finally, in light of Trump 2.0 and potential developments regarding the war in Ukraine, will Germany be prepared to assume more responsibility for Europe’s security?

Speakers: Janis A. Emmanouilidis, Deputy Chief Executive & Director of Studies, European Policy Centre; Almut Möller, Director for European and Global Affairs and Head of Programme, European Policy Centre; Fabian Zuleeg, Chief Executive & Chief Economist, European Policy Centre

Moderator: Jacki Davis, Senior Adviser, European Policy Centre
