Markus Soder, leader of the Christian Social Union (CSU), admitted SPD candidate Olaf Scholz has the best chances of forming a government and stressed the importance of accepting and respecting the electoral results during a joint press conference with the re-elected leader of the regional group, Alexander Dobrindt, in Berlin on Tuesday.

The CSU leader congratulated the SPD candidate, adding that “Olaf Scholz clearly has the best chance of becoming chancellor at the moment.”

Soder also acknowledged that it was “difficult times for the Union” and that it had been a “tough defeat due to a landslide on a broad front”, two days after the Bundestag elections.

According to official provisional results, the SPD came first in Sunday’s election with 25.7 percent and 206 seats, while the CDU, along with its Bavarian sister party CSU, came second with 24.1 percent and 196 seats - a historical low. The Greens and the Free Democratic Party (FDP), both of which will likely be key to forming any new government, came in third with 14.8 percent, and 118 seats, and fourth with 11.5 percent, and 92 seats, respectively.
