CDU
The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) is a major political party in Germany, traditionally representing center-right ideologies. Founded in the aftermath of World War II, the CDU has been a dominant force in German politics, especially under the leadership of figures like Angela Merkel. In recent elections, the party faced challenges due to shifting voter preferences but remains a key player in coalition negotiations and shaping the future of the European Union.
