President Joachim is a " ceremonial" leader.. Per German law, the chancellor calls the shot.

Yes, Angela Merkel is more powerful.

in a way, she has more responsibilities to handle (i.e. more national affairs to handel), however, the president is a symbol of unity to Germans!

in a way, it is like saying, is David Cameron more powerful than queen Elisabeth? and in this case, not really sure either, but I suppose the queen still has more powers that the president of Germany has even if she doesn't you it!

But internationally, Angela Merkel is more powerful because is the primary driver of the German policy
