Annalena Baerbock wants to become Federal Chancellor after the federal election in 2021.

The polls speak a different language.

But the signs point to government participation.

Berlin - She wants to be the first green politician in the Federal Chancellery.

Annalena Baerbock.

After her candidacy became known, the 40-year-old started with a real poll hype, but stumbled upon her résumé and a hectically written book during the course of the election campaign.

The polls fell.

Only optimistic fans currently believe that the party will come first in the general election on Sunday.

But government participation seems likely.

Baerbock himself seemed more relaxed in the last few weeks before the September 26 deadline.

In the TV triumphs, she showed herself to be sure of details, self-confident and widespread optimism.

Federal election 2021: Baerbock wants to drive climate policy forward - "We can no longer do things by halves"

On Friday, the Green Chancellor candidate confirmed their party's claim to lead the future federal government.

Despite poor poll numbers with around 16 percent and third place behind the SPD and Union.

At a central rally at the end of the election campaign, the politician said that many companies in Germany have long been focusing on climate-neutral business practices.

Now what is needed is a "green-led federal government that sets the framework for this," said Baerbock.

The federal election is the decision between "ducking" with the GroKo or a "new departure" with the Greens.

She reproached the previous governing parties for declaring their commitment to climate protection, but not taking action.

"Writing climate chancellors on posters is not enough," emphasized Baerbock.

"We can no longer afford anything by halves."

Before the federal election, Baerbock distinguished himself from the Union and the SPD in terms of tax and social policy

Baerbock also distinguished himself from the CDU / CSU and the SPD in tax and social policy.

After the election, the Union wanted to provide additional relief for the rich instead of providing the funds for necessary measures.

And the SPD did nothing during the legislative period that was coming to an end to introduce basic child benefits.
