According to Clemens Fuest, head of the Ifo Institute (cited by Jin10 on May 17), U.S. and Israeli military actions against Iran are dampening Germany’s economic recovery. Germany’s economy remains mired at 2019 levels after six years of stagnation, with 2026 growth now projected at merely 0.6%, down from earlier expectations of a rebound driven by government spending and borrowing. Fuest noted that while Germany faces no immediate energy supply shortages, disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz poses risks to global supply chains and Germany’s recovery prospects.
