Germany's super election year really kicked into life this week, with the CDU/CSU and Greens announcing their candidates for Chancellor in the federal elections later in September. Our Associate Director Simon Taylor spoke with Managing Partner of Rud Pedersen Germany, Hendrik Hagemann, about the Green candidate Annalena Baerbock and the man who has the unenviable task of succeeding Angela Merkel, Armin Laschet.

In the third episode of the series, Associate Director Simon Taylor and Senior Advisor in Berlin, Rüdiger Lentz, speak to former MEP of 38 years and senior figure within the CDU, Elmar Brok, about the results of last weekend's state elections in Baden-Württemberg and Rhineland-Palatinate. The CDU's vote was hit hard, but why did it happen and what does it mean for German politics in this super election year?

Following the recent power outages experienced in Texas, Associate Director Simon Taylor discusses why it happened and what Europe can learn from it with our Consultant and energy expert, Samuel Ribansky.

In the second episode of From Brussels to Berlin, Associate Director at Rud Pedersen Brussels discusses the EU Commission's vaccine procurement programme, Ursula von der Leyen's reputation in Germany and Josep Borrell's recent visit to Moscow.
