Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
Chancellor Angela Merkelās gentle opening speech at the Frankfurt car show contrasts sharply with her recent statement that she was āfuriousā at the carmakers because of the emissions scandal, writes Martin Gropp in a commentary in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. She āhandled the industry with kid gloves, repeating arguments used by the industry.ā Gropp argues her soft approach āmust not lead the industry to continue as before.ā
