Why Is German Chancellor Merz Escalating Tensions with Russia? Ulrike Guérot Explains | Harici
/ 2026 / … Harici Podcast Political scientist and European affairs expert Dr. Ulrike Guérot joined Prof. Dr. Hasan Ünal’s Strategic Compass program on Harici’s YouTube channel. Guérot discussed the escalating tensions between Germany and Russia, the drone controversy in Leipzig, and the Merz government’s policy toward Moscow. Arguing that Germany is becoming increasingly isolated in its policy toward Russia, Guérot said that the expected rise of the AfD in the Saxony-Anhalt elections could trigger a “domino effect” in German politics. Analyzing the future of the Merz government, the possibility of the AfD coming to power, and the political divide between eastern and western Germany, Guérot also addressed the presidential race in France. Assessing the political upheaval in France through Marine Le Pen, Jordan Bardella, and Jean-Luc Mélenchon, Guérot argued that Germany and France, Europe’s two central countries, are at a critical juncture.
