Germany's new Chancellor Friedrich Merz has set a bold agenda, emphasizing unity in the West over Ukraine, a robust German military, and economic revitalization to secure the nation's leadership role on the global stage.
Friedrich Merz, the recently inaugurated German Chancellor, has pledged to address Germany's economic stagnation, modernize its military, and ensure the nation fulfills NATO defence spending commitments. In his first government address to the Bundestag, Merz emphasized uniting Europe and the U.S. on Ukraine policy, rejecting any “dictated peace” or “subjugation” of Ukraine. He expressed gratitude to U.S. President Donald Trump for backing a 30-day ceasefire and vowed to strengthen transatlantic unity.
Merz stated that his government will strengthen border controls, prevent illegal entry, and enhance deportation efforts, all while adhering to EU regulations. He also vowed to boost digital progress, and pursue EU trade deals to reclaim Germany’s economic leadership. He pledged to drive reforms and investments to restore Germany's economic strength and global stature.
