Sigmar Gabriel discusses US social inequality and political instability

During an appearance on the program “Caren Miosga,” Sigmar Gabriel, chairman of the Atlantic Bridge association and former German Vice Chancellor, commented on the profound social inequality and poverty in the United States. Gabriel noted that the level of inequality in the US is difficult to explain in a European context and would not be tolerated in Europe.

Discussing the impact of rising living costs and perceived corruption on US politics, Gabriel suggested that such factors have contributed to political volatility. Journalist Annett Meiritz added that despite appearances of stability in seat distributions, the Democratic Party is expected to face internal power struggles over the next two years regarding issues such as migration, healthcare, and foreign policy, including relations with Israel and weapons deliveries.
