FILE - The Chairman of the German Christian Democratic Party (CDU), Friedrich Merz, addresses the media during a press conference at the party's headquarters in Berlin, Germany, on May 9, 2022. Germany's opposition leader insisted on Monday, July 24, 2023 that there will be no “cooperation” at the local level between his party and the far-right Alternative for Germany after his suggestion that they might somehow work together drew unease within his own conservative bloc. Friedrich Merz's center-right Christian Democratic Union has long said it won't work with Alternative for Germany, or AfD, which has drifted steadily further right. (AP Photo/Michael Sohn, File)
