Only 25% of Germans are currently supporting German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, while 62% are dissatisfied with his work, reports DW, citing the data provided by the German Institute for New Social Answers (INSA).
These numbers are dramatically lower compared to March. Then, 46% of Germans supported Scholz.
The ruling coalition’s approval rating has also decreased significantly. Only 27% are currently supporting it, and 65% are displeased with its work.
The poll shows that if the elections were to be held in Germany today, Scholz would earn only 18% of votes and come third, according to DW. Economy and Climate Minister Robert Habeck from the Green Party would come first with 25% of votes, while Friedrich Merz from the Christian-Democratic Union (CDU) — second, with 19% of Germans ready to vote for him, the data shows.
