LEIPZIG, Germany - Chancellor Angela Merkel's would-be successor, Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, urged delegates from her Christian Democratic Union to back her vision for Germany at their party congress on Friday or else"let's end it here and now".

"But, dear friends, if you want this Germany, if you want to take this path together... then let's roll up our sleeves here and now and make a start," she added before delegates showed their support with a seven-minute standing ovation. On Kramp-Karrenbauer's watch, the CDU suffered losses in a May election to the European Parliament and setbacks in regional elections."It isn't and it hasn't been an easy year," she said.

"That could happen, but it doesn't have to happen," she said, urging the CDU to back a vision for the future that delivers prosperity"not despite digitalisation but with digitalisation".
