A coffee with Lykke Friis

Germany has held its federal election, which will shape the
country’s political and economic future. As Europe's largest
economy and a key player in the EU, the election results will not
only impact Germany but also have significant implications for
its international partnerships – including its cooperation with
Denmark. The new political landscape will influence policies on
energy, trade, and security, making it essential to analyze the
key takeaways and future directions.


On 26 March Lykke Friis, Director of Think Tank
EUROPA, joined Andreas Wenzel for a coffee and shared her
insights.


Lykke Friis is the Director of Think Tank EUROPA and an expert on
European as well as German politics. With a background as
Denmark’s Minister for Climate and Energy and Prorector at the

German-Danish relations, EU affairs, and international policy
developments.


The topics for the 30-minute talk were:


The election results: What do they mean for Germany and
Europe?

Germany's new political landscape: Key priorities and
challenges

can we expect?
