However, unlike the situation in France, Chancellor Olaf Scholz does not appear to be considering stepping back at this point.

The election results in Germany have highlighted the strong performance of the far-right AfD party, along with a decline in support for the Social Democrats and especially the Greens.
Leading the pack are the Christian Democrats, while the new left-wing party, BSW, led by Sahra Wagenknecht, did not manage to make a breakthrough.
