    I the Iraq war Germany had a center left Chancellor. Now Germany has a center right Chancellor, who was fishing far right voters in his campaign. So it was expectable.

    Chancellor Merz speech at the Munich Sicherheitskonferenz however was different from this.

      Schröder was anything but center-left. He did transform the SPD from a center left working class party into a center right neoliberal copy of the CDU.
