Lunch Talk with Anja Wehler-Schöck, Member of the Editorial Board of Der Tagesspiegel
About this Event

Join us for an engaging lunch discussion analyzing the first six months of German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s government. How has his administration shaped Germany’s domestic and foreign policy agenda? What political challenges and coalition dynamics have emerged, and how has the public responded to his leadership style and priorities?

Anja Wehler-Schöck, a member of the editorial board of Der Tagesspiegel will offer insights into Merz’s early record, the narratives driving his public perception, and what these developments might signal for Germany’s future.

This lunch talk is hosted at the German International School Boston's Upper Campus on Holton Street.
