?The Social Democrats don?t want to embrace this success story,? Merkel told the meeting in Stralsund, Germany, on Saturday.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel publicly took aim at her main election challenger?s campaign proposals, suggesting for the first time that they would weaken Europe?s biggest economy.
Merkel, 62, used the speech to push back against the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany party, which is running a local challenger for the parliamentary seat she?s won in every general election since 1990.
Merkel, in office for more than 11 years, has said this year?s election will be her toughest yet.
On Election Day, ?I would be very happy if we come out strong enough so that I can be chancellor for another term.?
