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.

    A lot of it was sold to German companies, and that’s still going on (for instance, 14 small airports were sold to Fraport under pretty suspect terms as a memorandum condition about 4 years ago). German companies own a lot of stuff here now.

      Deutsche Telekom also owns most of the largest (by far) telecom company here which also used to be public (although shares started getting sold off already before the crisis).
