GPPi publishes op-ed on Merkel speech to US Congress

The piece is titled From Miss World to World Leader? and argues that Merkel has a chance to spell out an ambitious agenda for Germany’s and Europe’s role in the world and the partnership with the US. If she wants to establish herself as a credible leader on the world stage, she should not settle for a mere photo opportunity. To read the German version, please click here.
