German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is facing increasing pressure to resign following poor poll results and the upcoming key state elections in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Berlin. His party, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), is discussing replacing him to halt the decline in government support. Merz's approval rating has fallen to 14%, and the CDU/CSU bloc is at a record low of 18%, significantly behind the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD). The chancellor has called a meeting of his party's leadership on September 20 to discuss his future.
