Scholz's Concerns: French Election's Potential Impact on EU Relations

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has expressed significant concern about the outcome of the upcoming French run-off election. The potential for a National Rally victory could deteriorate German-French relations and impact the European Union as a whole. Scholz's daily communications with French President Emmanuel Macron highlight the critical nature of their alliance.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has voiced serious concerns regarding the impending results of France's run-off election. Scholz, usually reserved on international domestic politics, has repeatedly expressed his unease over the potential victory of the far-right National Rally party in France's second round of voting this Sunday.

In an unprecedented move, Scholz disclosed his daily communications with French President Emmanuel Macron as the election looms closer. At a Berlin gathering of his Social Democratic Party, Scholz confessed, "We are discussing the situation, which is really depressing."

Experts warn that a win for the nationalist party could severely impact German-French ties and ripple across the European Union. Scholz emotionally remarked, "In any case, I am keeping my fingers crossed that the French, whom I love and appreciate so much, will succeed in preventing a government led by a right-wing populist party."
