A Scholz in the Dark: How is Germany’s Chancellor Doing?

“Scholz has come to power by imitating Merkel, by promising no surprises.”

“Scholz doesn’t seem to be able to make decisions when they need to be done.”

“He is coming from this old school, appeasement policy towards Russia.”

“People are still missing Merkel, Scholz cannot pull the EU together the way she could.”

“In such a time of crisis, there is just not room for populism.”
