With Germany’s elections set for Sunday, polls show young Germans turning to Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party. How did the country’s economic boom turn young Germans to the right? FRANCE 24 reports from Germany.

Germany will become the first European country to legally recognise a “third gender” in November when new-born babies whose sex is indeterminable will no longer be automatically assigned a male or female gender by medical staff.

UPDATE: 21/08/2013 - COMMUNICATION - EDWARD SNOWDEN - GERMANY - PRIVACY

No more surveillance: Germans fight to protect data from prying eyes

Some 500 million communications a month were intercepted by the NSA in Germany, according to US whistleblower Edward Snowden. Although not officially verified, this was a wake-up call to Germans. Many are now rallying to try to block further snooping by the secret services, which for them is reminiscent of surveillance operations carried out by the Stasi and the Third Reich. As elections approach, voters are asking the government to do more.
