Searching for Deutschland

European Council on Foreign Relations

8 months ago

On 23 February, Germany will hold an election—but the country seems to have turned inwards. Relations with France and Poland, its two essential partners, have deteriorated; where the country previously provided the European project with leadership at crucial moments, it now drags its feet. As a result, Jeremy Cliffe and Jana Puglierin are “Searching for Deutschland”. This new podcast from the European Council on Foreign Relations sees the think-tank's Berlin-based editorial director and Berlin office head joined by expert guests to discuss the domestic fault-lines behind the country's foreign policy disorientation. Following the election campaign from a European and global perspective, they will explore the political debates and what the country's new government might have to offer.

German leadership: Gone for good or just resting?

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Searching for Deutschland, a new podcast by ECFR exploring the European and foreign policy dimensions of the German election on February 23rd. Hosts Jeremy Cliffe and Jana Puglierin join Mark Leonard, ECFR's director, for a World in 30 Minutes [AS1] crossover to discuss their plans for the coming weeks and the premise of the podcast, namely: has Germany gone missing from its European leadership role?

The hosts also discuss Friedrich Merz, chancellor candidate of the centre-right CDU party and front-runner to lead Germany’s next government. What are Merz's foreign policy influences and instincts? What will this mean for Germany's role in Europe and the world?

Read Jana's and Jeremy's commentary on the “Merz doctrine” here.
