(FILES) (COMBO) This combination of pictures created on October 29, 2019 shows then German Chancellor Angela Merkel (October 15, 2019 in Berlin and then German corporate lawyer and former parliamentary group leader of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) Friedrich Merz (October 31, 2018 in Berlin). Former German chancellor Angela Merkel on January 30, 2025 criticised Friedrich Merz, who succeeded her as leader of the conservative CDU party, for relying on far-right support to pass a parliamentary motion demanding tougher immigration rules. Reminding Merz that he himself had spoken out against forming majorities with the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), Merkel said "it is wrong to no longer feel bound by this proposal and thus, for the first time, to have allowed on January 29 a majority with the votes of the AfD in a vote in the German Bundestag".
