Nov 21, 2016 - Why Angela Merkel will win German elections in 2017 and become the Chancellor for the fourth time?

Simply, because of the change, so no surprise here.

-          She seems to be tired and not bringing anything new but it may be her advantage as Europe desperately needs stability, experience and leadership at this time.

-          Europe needs her as a symbol of stability after few rounds of Greek crisis, ongoing rise of populism in Europe and around the world of which the last proof is Donald Trump becoming the US president. Without the experienced leader, stability, pragmatism and realistic view Europe cannot reinvent itself.

-          All of that is happening when her close allay on international scene Barrack Obama is leaving White House, the UK has no idea how to pursue with Brexit, French president Francois Hollande is not very popular (nicely said) and Marine Le Pen is gaining support on international scene and of course not to forget about Russian president Vladimir Putin who is actively working on creating the chaos and split between Western leaders.

-          Europe needs an experienced leader who can deal with problems like refugees crisis as well as to face the unpredictability that may come from Washington in terms of security and protectionism.

-          Her strength as well as weakness lies in her being the last one who can defend the basic principles of liberalism and free trade. She is very pragmatic and sometimes invisible, what is a good contrast to populists, like those who pushed the UK to Brexit situation.

Angela Merkel’s victory can bring the hope for a change on the continent.

Good luck Champs!
