The majority of G7 governments are now so burdened with domestic political problems that they are incapable of steering their own countries.

Populism and fiscal problems are feeding on each other and make it harder and harder to govern.

The only two G7 countries that could claim to have a stable government in place are the U.K. and Italy .

Merz’s CDU is currently well ahead of the AfD in the polls for the German elections.

But far-right and populist parties across the G7 now clearly have a friend in the White House .

Nationalist parties such as France ’s Rassemblement National have a strong anti-American tradition.
