It’s been a difficult first 100 days in office for German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

Merz had said he hoped the first results of his chancellorship would be visible by late summer. So far, polls show a majority of Germans are unconvinced. We take a look at some of the challenges he’s facing right now.
