Valerie Höhne is a political analyst for Spiegel Online. Valerie believes : "Who will succeed chancellor Angela Merkel as head of the CDU is a pivotal part of the question. If the conservatives win, the possibility of a power struggle between chancellor Merkel and the new party head is much greater."

 

 

Andreas Kluth, Editor in Chief of  Handelsblatt Global says: „Merkel’s decision was both clever and dignified, and may let her stay on as chancellor until 2021."
