The far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) has made history by winning a state election in Germany, raising concerns about its potential rise in federal elections, where it could become the second-strongest party in the Bundestag. This victory underscores deep-rooted cultural and political divisions in Germany, particularly between its eastern and western regions, which may temper the AfD's influence. Meanwhile, Bosnia and Herzegovina's Foreign Minister welcomed Austria's new ambassador, highlighting strong bilateral relations and Austria's significant role as an investor and trade partner. The minister emphasized Austria's support for BiH's EU membership and ongoing development projects. In sports, Dutch defender Matthijs de Ligt will start against Germany despite a recent mistake, while young German star Jamal Musiala asserts the team's growing chemistry and commitment to both fun and hard work on the pitch.
