Germany’s embattled chancellor, Friedrich Merz, has vowed to stay in office and fight for future-proofing economic changes despite heavy losses for his conservatives in two state elections, one to the far right and the other to a leftwing party.(德国四面楚歌的总理弗里德里希·默茨誓言留任，并为面向未来的经济改革而战——尽管其保守派在两场州选举中损失惨重，一场败给极右翼，另一场败给左翼政党。)
德国总理弗里德里希·默茨四面楚歌，但他誓言继续留任，并为面向未来的经济改革而战——尽管其保守派阵营在两场州选举中损失惨重，一场败给极右翼，另一场败给左翼政党。
Preliminary results indicated Merz’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) tallied just 4.9% in the coastal region of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, below the 5% threshold needed to enter the state parliament and indicating they may be excluded altogether.(初步结果显示，默茨领导的基民盟在沿海的梅克伦堡-前波莫瑞州仅获得4.9%的选票，低于进入州议会所需的5%门槛，这意味着该党可能被完全排除在州议会之外。) It would be the CDU’s worst-ever(有史以来最差的) state score, which Merz called a “disaster”.
初步结果显示，默茨领导的基督教民主联盟（基民盟）在沿海的梅克伦堡-前波莫瑞州仅获得4.9%的选票，低于进入州议会所需的5%门槛，这意味着该党可能被完全排除在州议会之外。这将是基民盟有史以来最差的州级选举成绩，默茨称之为“灾难”。
The anti-immigration(反移民的), Kremlin-friendly(亲克里姆林宫的、亲俄的) Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party extended a streak of strong showings by coming in first in the former communist region with 38.3%, more than doubling its previous score, according to projection(预测、推算)s on ARD public television.
反移民、亲克里姆林宫的德国选择党（AfD）延续了强劲表现，在这个前共产主义地区以38.3%的得票率位居第一，较上次选举翻了一倍多。这是据德国公共电视台ARD的预测。
