Days after surpassing Japan to become the world's third-largest economy, Germany has been hit by a wave of strikes. On Tuesday, workers in the country's transportation sector walked off their jobs, causing chaos at airports, bus and train stations. The strikes stem from demands for higher wages and improved working conditions, with unions arguing that inflation has made life difficult for their members. A similar strike earlier this month put Germany—reputed for its efficiency—to a standstill.
