Germany's coalition talks between CDU, CSU, and SPD are progressing but face significant hurdles.
Financial disagreements remain a key sticking point, while escalating U.
S. trade tariffs under Donald Trump add further pressure.
CDU's Karin Prien and CSU's Alexander Dobrindt emphasize the need for economic stability and growth amidst global trade tensions.
Despite internal party criticism and public skepticism, leaders like Markus Söder and Lars Klingbeil remain optimistic about forming a government that addresses Germany's pressing issues.
Talks are expected to continue into next week, with no clear timeline for resolution.
