This meant that only 10% of the companies initially affected by this directive would have to comply.<\/p>\n<p>The parliamentary leadership had wanted to pass the watered-down version with the support of conservatives, liberals, and social democrats, but it ultimately failed because some deputies rejected the proposal in a secret ballot.<\/p>\n<p>Conservative politicians, in particular, responded with harsh criticism of the social democrat group. For instance, Chancellor Friedrich Merz accused the EP of making a &#8220;fatal mistake,&#8221; called the vote result &#8220;unacceptable,&#8221; and added, &#8220;This situation cannot continue.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This can be seen as proof of the real importance of the EP and its democratically made decisions: at Merz&#8217;s request, the vote will be repeated in November.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The right-wing &#8220;Venezuela majority&#8221; could become the norm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the EU summit last Thursday, EP President Roberta Metsola, a member of the &#8220;center-right&#8221; EPP, stated that a secure majority to weaken the supply chain directive could only be achieved with a different party constellation.<\/p>\n<p>This requires cooperation between the EPP, the national-conservative ECR, and the &#8220;far-right&#8221; PfE. The ECR is led by Giorgia Meloni&#8217;s party, the Brothers of Italy, while the PfE is led by the French National Rally (RN).<\/p>\n<p>This combination of parties helped secure a majority for several parliamentary resolutions, including one in which the EP presumed to declare the EU and US-backed Machado the winner of the September 2024 Venezuelan parliamentary elections, which she had lost in July 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, the majority formed by the EPP, ECR, and PfE has been referred to by insiders as the &#8220;Venezuela majority.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As Metsola explained, she received a clear &#8220;message&#8221; at the EU summit that she should seek a majority &#8220;wherever she can find it&#8221; to weaken the supply chain directive.<\/p>\n<p>Metsola said she has an &#8220;institutional responsibility&#8221; to guarantee workable majorities in her office and that she will now do so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Green light for decisions made with AfD votes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The EP&#8217;s increased openness to majorities that include the far-right is accompanied by a rapidly growing debate in the German Federal Parliament (Bundestag) about a similar opening.<\/p>\n<p>Although the 2018 &#8220;incompatibility&#8221; resolution, which states that the CDU rejects &#8220;coalitions and similar forms of cooperation&#8221; with the AfD, is still in effect, calls to abandon this practice have recently been increasing.<\/p>\n<p>For example, former CDU General Secretary Peter Tauber demanded that &#8220;decisions accepted by the AfD be allowed to pass&#8221; and said that the &#8220;Nazi club should not be wielded&#8221; when a decision is made with AfD votes.<\/p>\n<p>Andreas R\u00f6dder, former chairman of the CDU&#8217;s Commission on Core Values, also declared his support for a &#8220;willingness for conditional dialogue&#8221; as long as the AfD respects &#8220;red lines&#8221; and &#8220;clearly distances itself from far-right positions and figures.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Some leading CDU politicians in East Germany, such as Christian Hartmann, head of the Saxony CDU parliamentary group, advise forming their own positions &#8220;beyond all firewall debates.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to information from within the party, even at the federal level, &#8220;some Christian Democrats do not care much for the firewall.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The German mainstream becomes &#8220;anti-immigrant&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, it is suggested that Chancellor Friedrich Merz is pushing not only his party but also public debate in Germany to open up to the AfD&#8217;s &#8220;classic racist positions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On October 14, he said of immigrants, &#8220;this problem still exists in the cityscape,&#8221; and stated that plans for deportation &#8220;on a very large scale&#8221; were being made for this reason.<\/p>\n<p>When asked on October 20 what he meant by this, he replied, &#8220;Ask your daughters what I mean by that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On October 22, following protests from business circles, the chancellor announced that he was excluding immigrants with the skills Germany needs from his condemnation, arguing that people of immigrant origin who are an indispensable part of the labor market are &#8220;no longer dispensable, regardless of where they come from or the color of their skin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In an interview published on October 19, Merz stated that he currently rejects any cooperation with the AfD, but that problems should not be avoided just because the AfD might then find them &#8220;acceptable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Referring to Bundestag majorities made possible with the AfD&#8217;s approval, Merz said, &#8220;The CDU must never fall into this dependency.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>AfD emphasizes cooperation with the US and NATO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If the CDU opens up to the AfD&#8217;s positions and public debates, the AfD is also ready to show that it can adapt on important issues and is capable of governing.<\/p>\n<p>According to a report, the AfD parliamentary group has prepared motions it plans to submit to parliament calling for a &#8220;new beginning in German-American relations&#8221; based on the political positions of a Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p>Partially departing from the AfD&#8217;s previous &#8220;pro-Russia&#8221; stance, the motions state that transatlantic relations are the &#8220;cornerstone of Germany&#8217;s security and prosperity&#8221; and that there is &#8220;currently no serious alternative&#8221; to integration into NATO.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the parliamentary group is removing a decisive obstacle to cooperation with the CDU and CSU: in May 2024, the current chairman of the CDU parliamentary group, Jens Spahn, redefined the &#8220;firewall,&#8221; stating that the EPP&#8217;s and therefore the CDU&#8217;s &#8220;potential partners&#8221; on the far-right must be &#8220;pro-European, pro-NATO, pro-rule of law, and pro-Ukraine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Beatrix von Storch, deputy chair of the AfD parliamentary group in the Bundestag, justifies her group&#8217;s transatlantic shift by referring to the domestic policy of a Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p>Storch endorses Trump&#8217;s policy of cracking down on immigrants, leftists, and other critics while supporting far-right activists in the US, saying, &#8220;President Trump is working for the rebirth of the West.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- notionvc: 839cb263-a4b0-43e6-98d4-9727aee90030 --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are signs that cooperation between the majority &#8220;center-right&#8221;
