Minister Meretz faces Merkel nostalgia rise

Germany experienced a significant surge of interest in a painting by artist Jeremy Quieras depicting former Chancellor Angela Merkel. The artwork was added to the Berlin Museum of the East, and its exhibition has been extended for an additional three months until January 2024. More than five years after stepping down from office, Merkel has reemerged into the public scene with notable intensity, with large crowds attending book signing sessions featuring postcards bearing her image—tickets sold out within a few hours. The public’s fascination with Merkel’s return is attributed to her well-known traits of calmness and moderation, with many expressing admiration for her leadership style and approachability, especially in a time when many Germans face upheavals and crises. Some even prefer her return to the chancellorship rather than current policies. Polls indicate that about 48% of Germans believe Merkel would be more effective in handling the country's current challenges compared to the current Chancellor, Friedrich Merz. Her widespread popularity remains strong even after leaving office.
