Contributing sentiments towards policy:
59% : That's because Merkel, a longtime force of stability and leadership in her country, and for the European Union more broadly, is exiting the stage.48% : And while the business-friendly FDP could join a "traffic light" coalition, FDP leader Christian Lindner has said he wants control over the finance ministry in exchange for helping Scholz become chancellor, which could be a hurdle for the SPD and The Greens since having the FDP in that position could limit how much they can raise taxes and expand deficit spending.
