Qui l’eut dit ? L’Allemagne, du jour au lendemain, renonce à son austérité financière et à quatre-vingts ans de dogme pacifiste.

German borrowing costs surged on Wednesday after chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz agreed a historic deal with his probable coalition partners that would relax the country’s strict “debt brake” rules to fund investment in the military and infrastructure.
Deutsche Bank economists described the deal as “one of the most historic paradigm shifts in German postwar history”, adding that both the “speed at which this is happening and the magnitude of the prospective fiscal expansion is reminiscent of German reunification”.
