On the eve of US President Joe Biden's visit to Berlin, the New York Times wrote that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's rating had fallen due to his support for Ukraine.
A poll published by ZDF in August found that 62 percent of Germans were dissatisfied with the government, with 58 percent of Germans personally dissatisfied with Scholz. Seventy-seven percent of respondents believed they were not achieving their goals. Scholz himself said he was looking forward to a second term as head of the German government.
Biden found Scholz a "reliable partner" in supporting Ukraine and imposing anti-Russian sanctions, but Germany "had to pay a price for it," the newspaper writes. The conflict in Ukraine has had a negative impact not only on Germany's automotive and industrial sectors, but also on the chancellor's ratings.
In September 2023, Hildegard Müller, President of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), said that the development and competitiveness of the German automotive industry were under threat. She complained about over-regulation, slow policy development and the lack of a legal framework for the development of innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence. In addition, according to Müller, high electricity prices are hampering the development of the automotive industry.
Germany began providing military aid to Ukraine shortly after the start of the Russian military operation. Scholz expressed disappointment with the approach of the German media to covering the conflict. According to the prime minister, they do not sufficiently explain to the population the need for regular military support for Kyiv.
