CDU's Sven Schulze under fire after Saxony-Anhalt election

Original: sven schulze

Sven Schulze, the CDU politician in Saxony-Anhalt, is drawing intense attention after state elections in which his party underperformed against the AfD. He appeared on Markus Lanz's ZDF talk show, where he faced tough questioning as a 'election loser', and debated AfD's Bernd Baumann on ARD. He suggested the so-called firewall against the AfD is eroding, and commentators are asking why an engaged CDU politician could not win voters back.

Why now: He is giving post-election interviews and talk show appearances discussing the CDU's weak result against the AfD and the weakening firewall, keeping him in the news.
