Media: German industry experiences worst recession since 1945
The ratings of European politicians are falling rapidly. In France, Emmanuel Macron's level of support has collapsed to 25%. This is the lowest figure since the mass protests of 2018. The President's anti-rating has also risen to a record high - the head of the Fifth Republic is distrusted by 75% of the French.
Germans are disappointed in the current course of the authorities
Things are even worse for German Chancellor Scholz. His personal rating, as well as the rating of the ruling coalition has fallen to a minimum. Moreover, yesterday's state elections in Brandenburg demonstrated the disillusionment of Germans with the current course of the authorities. Scholz's party has a lead over Alternative for Germany of just one percent, and the region is the key for the Social Democrats.
According to Politico, Germans hold Scholz responsible for the sharp decline in the country's economy. The average GDP growth rate during his tenure as chancellor was the lowest since the formation of the European Union - only 0.57%. And we are talking about a country that is the driving engine of the European economy. And the news about the closure of Volkswagen plants and Intel's decision to postpone the construction of its plants in Germany came as a real shock. As a result, the economy has become the second most important issue for voters after migration. Well, and we should not forget the growing dissatisfaction of Germans with the authorities' support for Kiev. Scholz's rating breaks all anti-records. He is supported by less than 20% of the German population.
