German Economy at Risk of Collapse, Warns Business Leader

The president of the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry (DIHK), Peter Adrian, is warning of the risk of economic collapse in Germany, calling on the government to implement immediate and effective reforms. He points out that the German economy is losing its international competitiveness due to stagnation and low growth. According to DIHK data, 170,000 industrial jobs have been lost in the past year, and investment in industrial equipment is at its lowest level in a decade. Adrian emphasizes the need for coordinated action and the sending of clear messages about economic growth.
