8. Angela Merkel:
Currently the Chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel is the first woman to lead Germany. She became chancellor for the first time in the year 2005 and in the year 2009, she was again reelected and also became the leader of the Europe's strongest economy as the critical situation of debt crisis has perked up. She will be playing a major role in solving the issue. At present, she is actually in a complicated position as Germans do not want to spend money on the troubled situation that Greece is facing whereas the Europeans want Merkel to entrust more intensely to the European Union.
