Angela Merkel, who has been German Chancellor since 2005, has announced that she will not be running again for reelection in 2021. She also said that she does not want to run for any other political office either. The article states that Merkels announcement is a sign of her waning popularity and weakend power in her country.
This is somewhat like George Washington’s farewell address. Both Washington and Merkel are well known politicians announcing the end of their political career to their country.
