It should mark the day when Friedrich Merz's political coronation began with the celebration of emotions.

The future cabinet minister overlooks a floor filled with parliament, with respectful guests and family sitting in the upper court of the Bundestag, dressed on Sunday, best witnessing the election of Christian Democrats as the 10th Prime Minister in post-war Germany.

Among the participants, former Prime Minister and longtime Melz rival Angela Merkel chatted with outgoing Finance Minister Jörg Kukies and future Economy Minister Katherina Reiche. Next to the couple's two daughters, Meers' wife, are waving and smiling.

Then, Bundestag President Julia Klöckner made a stunning news: Merz failed to reach the absolute majority required, the first in the 80-year history of the Federal Republic. The conservative leader reportedly drove a 10-liter beer from his home in the arena to celebrate his inauguration, but even with his league having 328 seats, there were no 316 votes.

As the audience was shocked, Meers and his alliance partner Lars Klingbeil, a co-leader of Social Democrats and future vice-chancellor, withdrew their dormitory. Angry efforts began to spot dissidents and called up numbers to reschedule the second round of votes. After a few hours, Meles finally secured most of the seats he needed.

But this episode ruined the most of the Prime Minister’s Award in the new election: authority. Voting is the most vivid example of the challenges Meers will face throughout his term. The 69-year-old prime minister is seeking to reform Europe's largest economy during a time of political and economic turmoil - he relies on razors - a weak parliamentary majority.

"Historical. It's definitely historic. Never lost the first vote," said political scientist Andrea Römmele. “No one expected this.”

"It shows the vulnerability of the entire league," Römmele added. "It weakened him, just as everyone in Europe was watching and waiting for Germany to come back."

After a six-month six-month election cycle, the new coalition could have had a worse omen that would have set a line in the years under the outgoing Olaf Scholz-led coalition that collapsed in November.

Alice Weidel, a co-leader of Germany's far-right alternative, has her faction fallen into a frustration. She called for new elections between the voting rounds, and her co-leader Tino Chrupalla declared: “It’s a great day for Germany.”

Meers has a total of 328 seats in the parliament, and his CDU, the alliance between the Bavarian sister party CSU and SPD has a 13-seat majority.

With the inability to identify dissidents in a secret vote, but only a few votes went missing, Melz and Clinbel decided that the best option was to reschedule the vote on the same day when all members of Congress were in the capital. Their hope: Those who make a vote as a protest will realize the gravity of their choice.

Rumors whirled from the corner of the CDU, and dissidents were dissatisfied with Clinbel. They disagree with his cabinet date the day before, many of whom were quick and quick to hold their anger after the worst election results since 1887, to consolidate their power by occupying the leadership of the party's parliamentary group, or such a theory.

However, SPD MPs refused to blame. They pointed out that within his own conservative group, he showed signs of public stimulus within his own conservative group after he suddenly accepted the country's constitutional lending restrictions and the 1TN spending package for military and infrastructure.

"Mels offended a lot of people. Clinbel offended a lot of people, too," Rommel said.

A top CDU official, who had lunch with employees at a restaurant in Bundestag, was anxiously waiting for a second vote to be held on Tuesday, insisting he couldn't know if CDU-CSU members voted against Merz.

"I'll say we're united," he said. "But the SPD may say the same thing. We'll never find out because it's a secret vote."

When Germany faced serious external and internal challenges, it undermined the foundations of the country's revival after World War II.

Merz has long been a firm Atlanticist who must deal with an unreliable and increasingly hostile U.S. government under Donald Trump, which is trying to reduce its defense commitment to Europe, which has been the cornerstone of German post-war security.

After years of stagnation, the threat of Trump's trade tariffs on EU goods could put export-oriented countries in contraction this year.

Anyway, interruption is a humiliating wonder. The outgoing SPD Prime Minister Scholz received a traditional farewell from the brass band in Deleswell the night before, and he returned to the principal.

A series of ceremonies scheduled for Tuesday afternoon have been shelved and a planned trip to France's Prime Minister Emmanuel Macron, who plans to visit Paris the next day, is suspected.

At home, Merz opens his alliance with SPD as the mainstream party’s last attempt to stop the rise of the far-right AFD. The party ranked second in the February election with more than one-fifth of votes, won the neck along with the CDU in a poll and aims to finish first in the next election, which is scheduled to be held in 2029.

But some analysts try to downplay the importance of short plays. In 1949, CDU Chief Konrad Adenauer was elected as Minister of Parliament in Parliament along with Helmut Kohl of another CDU Chancellor.

"It's a one-off and some MPs want to send a signal," said Andreas Busch, a professor of political science at the University of Göttingen. "Melz supports his alliance."

"Today's incident was a wake-up call, but it didn't have a lasting shadow on the Meltz administration," said Armin Steinbach, a HEC professor based in Paris Business School. "Voters forgot. If the government succeeds, no one will remember that."

He added: “The message to Melz is that he has to be a unified figure, not a polarization of the past.”
