Angela Merkel's party loses in Germany: Opposition will form a government by forming a coalition



Incumbent Angela Merkel's party has lost the election in Germany. If neither party gets a clear majority, the two main opposition parties will form a coalition government. Olaf Schulz is expected to become the new chancellor, with the Social Democratic Party receiving the highest vote share of 7.5 percent.
Angela Merkel's party, which has been Chancellor of Germany for 15 years, has suffered a major blow in the election. Merkel's union bloc did not get enough votes. The Social Democrats emerged as the largest party. SDP candidate Olaf Schulz said it was time for Angela Merkel's party to sit in opposition. Germany will get a new government.
The SDP got the highest number of votes at 7.5 per cent. Angela's Central Democratic Union came in second with 5.1 percent. The gap was negligible, but the ruling will have to sit in opposition as the Social Democrats ally with other opposition parties. The Green Party received 12 percent of the vote. With the support of the Green Party, the formation of a Social Democratic Party government is being ruled out.
Angela Merkel announced just before the election that this is her last term. He will no longer be Chancellor. That is one of the reasons why Angela's party lost the election. Angela Merkel has been Chancellor of Germany for the past 15 years. During Angela's reign, Germany quickly became known as one of the fastest growing economies in Europe. During Angela's reign, Germany was called the Growth Engine of Europe.
The Social Democrats came to power for the first time since 2004. However, it was not immediately clear who the chancellor would be. The possibility that other parties in the coalition will also make claims cannot be ruled out. The process of selecting the chancellor will begin in the coming days.
