Have you read his bio? He is THE prototype trans-atlantic hawk, and still he looks like he is turning away from the US right now.

On the other hand, he is not elected Chancellor yet, so we won't know for sure until then. Triggering a vote of no confidence would be REALLY dangerous right now, lest the far right gain even more votes. So he kind of has this leverage against his future coalition partner.
