Nothing but a distraction. Steinmeier himself did anything but reduce Europe's unilateral dependence on the US when he was vice-chancellor and foreign minister. Now, as president, he holds a symbolic office with no political influence whatsoever. Merz, the acting chancellor, is a US lobbyist and wants to introduce Palantir across Germany, for example.
