While only 5 percent of nations are currently helmed by a woman, the top 4 spots on Forbes’ 2019 list ofall went to female political leaders, highlighting the outsize influence they command on the world stage. Collectively, these women oversee $54 trillion in GDP and more than 3.5 billion people.
While not every political leader on this list is a head of state, many are wielding their power at unprecedented scale., a returnee to the list, is the highest-ranking female leader in the US and as Speaker of the House she’s a central figure in the ongoing impeachment proceedings against President Trump.
Power has always been tenuous as seen by Theresa May’s drop off the list following her resignation as Prime Minister of the UK after failing to broker a Brexit deal with the EU. While May is out,, First Minister of Scotland, remains a key figure in the ongoing Brexit process as she’s poised to lead Scotland through a potential second referendum on independence.
Despite relative stagnation in the number of women reaching the highest ranks of power, some notable newcomers have entered the scene including, Minister of Finance and Corporate Affairs in India, who has significant influence over the world’s fifth largest economy. Belgium and Slovakia elected their first female leaders,
Clueless why IvankaTrump on the list. Yes, she has access, but she’s only interested in photo ops, is there illegally due to nepotism and has a history of fraud. You list her as having an MBA. That’s incorrect. Do better.
The political mistakes of Merkel count with a lasting impact in the EU🇪🇺&Middle East countries. Also in the relationship between the EU, Russia & US, link, to the 🌎geopolitical stability.
She seems too weak and polite. Trump walks all over her and she just takes it instead of standing up to him. So long, weakling. Hopefully, Germany's next leader will be a role model.
