German media on November 27 began with extensive coverage of the shooting incident near the White House, where two National Guard members were severely injured, with President Trump immediately characterizing it as an "act of terror" and an Afghan national identified as a suspect. This event quickly overshadowed other domestic news, including an internal SPD critique and a family murder in Reutlingen.
By early afternoon, the focus sharpened on Trump's response, as he announced plans to review and potentially deport Afghan refugees, leveraging the incident for his political agenda. Concurrently, reports emerged on a US peace plan for Ukraine, revealing internal Kremlin communications and suggesting it might be overshadowing Ukraine's corruption crisis. Debates also intensified regarding conservative parties' engagement with the AfD.
In the evening, German media continued to report on what was termed Russia's "shadow war" in Germany, involving drone overflights and sabotage. Discussions around a new Ukraine peace plan continued, with Putin presenting radical and potentially unfulfillable conditions, a narrative that dominated the later hours.
