Friedrich Merz is set to be sworn in as the new leader of Europe's biggest economy on Tuesday. In the run-up to the vote in the Bundestag, we asked Euronews reporter in Berlin, Zara Riffler, what Germans are expecting from their new leader, and how his focus may be elsewhere.
We also look at high-level discussions on how to ensure sustainable supplies of raw materials, which form the basis of Europe’s economy. Finally, could Canada become the 28th EU member state?
