Here is the best article I could find on this.

The Greens' surge in popularity comes after the party on Monday named co-chair Annalena Baerbock, 40, as its first candidate for chancellor. The nomination of Ms Baerbock, a centrist who advocates a greener economy and a tougher foreign policy stance on Russia and China, has been widely praised.

Hopefully the Christian Democrat Union won't be on top any more.

    People talking about how this might be good for Germany. I'm sitting here wondering how this will affect NATO, how this will affect imperialism. To me the green shit sounds completely irrelevant and the foreign policy is suspiciously convenient for the US in the new cold war.

      CDU was already pretty big on NATO though, so I don't think it changes that much. They do strike me as slightly more hawkish but idk.
