⌨The newspapers report extensively on the economic impact of Trump's aggressive trade policies. His tariffs are causing a "tariff shock" to the global economy (FAZ, FR, Sueddeutsche, merkur.de), with reports that Germany's economy is stagnating as a result (FR, merkur.de). The IMF has cut growth forecasts, with analysts noting the policies may particularly harm the US itself (Sueddeutsche). China is reportedly seeking to redirect exports originally meant for the US to other markets, potentially "flooding" the EU with products (Spiegel). In domestic news, the AfD has reached its highest-ever polling numbers (Welt), while a Polish school shooting drill is framed as "preparation for war" (Bild).
