Europe has voted, particularly in Germany, Austria and France, where there are concerns of a shift to the right. POLITICO’s German editor-in-chief, Gordon Repinski, analyzes what this means for European politics and Germany, and what signal Germany’s results send to the EU on this day after the election.
POLITICO correspondents in Warsaw, Vienna, Stockholm, Paris and Madrid report on the election results.
From Berlin, Hans von der Burchard reports on how the results will shape the work of German representatives in the EU Parliament and what changes are taking place in the federal government’s European policy.
The 200-second interview with Social Democratic Party (SPD) leader Lars Klingbeil focuses on what lessons he and his comrades have learned from the Social Democratic Party’s worst performance in history, and what role the chancellor’s policies played in the outcome. It will fit.
The Berlin Playbook is available as a podcast at 5am. Gordon Repinski and the POLITICO team deliver concise, European and in-depth political updates every morning.
