Germany faced a political earthquake. The Bundestag passed a vote of no confidence against Chancellor Scholz, resulting in the collapse of the coalition government made up of the SPD, the Greens, and the Free Democratic Party (FDP).

The article from MSN discusses the significant political shift in Germany following the European Parliament elections, where the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party made substantial gains, becoming the second largest party in Germany. This development has raised concerns about the future of German support for Ukraine amidst its ongoing conflict with Russia. The AfD, known for its pro-Russian stance and skepticism towards EU and NATO policies, could potentially influence Germany's foreign policy, particularly in terms of military and financial aid to Ukraine. Despite this, the ruling coalition led by Chancellor Olaf Scholz has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Ukraine, although the political landscape's shift might complicate this stance. The article also touches on the broader implications for European unity and the potential for increased nationalist movements across the continent, which could affect the EU's collective response to international crises like the war in Ukraine.
