Is Friedrich Merz, the upcoming German Chancellor, less popular in Germany than in Brussels? Has he yielded too much power to the social-democrats?

Today Radio Schuman answers these questions together with Euronews German correspondent Liv Stroud.

Merz has proposed a constitutional change to increase government spending on infrastructure and the military. This, along with a more cautious approach to migration and conscription in the coalition agreement, has angered many within his party.

Today Radio Schuman also brings you the latest European Union report on climate change and the most peculiar things found in lost luggage.

Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Maïa de la Baume, with journalist and production assistant Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by David Brodheim. Music by Alexandre Jas.
