Федеральный канцлер Германии Ангела Меркель руководит сильнейшей европейской экономикой, в Евросоюзе она неоспоримый лидер. Хотя экономика Германии до недавнего времени быстро росла, а безработица падала, Меркель столкнулась со многими проблемами: потеря поддержи избирателей, кризис еврозоны, где Германия обречена спасать своих более слабых соседей. Ей предстоит стабилизировать долг Евросоюза и сохранить единство еврозоны. Вместе с президентом Франции Николя Саркози Меркель призывает к более тесной экономической и политической интеграции еврозоны. А в Германии ее рейтинг продолжает падать: ее поддерживают всего 36% немцев, это самый низкий показатель за последние пять лет.
Родившаяся в Восточной Германии и выросшая в социалистической экономике Меркель признает: «Я до сих пор покупаю что-то, как только вижу, даже если мне это не нужно. Это глубоко укоренившаяся привычка».

Хиллари Клинтон второй год успешно справляется с должностью госсекретаря США. Для нее это был непростой год: на Ближнем Востоке началась волна революций, WikiLeaks опубликовал секретные депеши американских спецслужб. Хиллари объявила о том, что не останется госсекретарем на второй срок и не будет выдвигать свою кандидатуру на президентских выборах в 2016 году, но кто сказал, что она готова уйти на пенсию? Есть слухи, что Клинтон надеется возглавить Всемирный банк.
Клинтон говорила, что наблюдая за операцией по ликвидации Бин Ладена вместе с президентом Бараком Обамой, она пережила «самые напряженные минуты в жизни», но подчеркнула, что прикрыла рот рукой не из страха, а чтобы унять кашель.

Дилма Русеф занимала верхние строчки новостей, когда в октябре была избрана президентом страны с самой крупной экономикой в Латинской Америке. Впервые этот пост заняла женщина. Но результаты выборов не были такими уж неожиданными. В 2005-м президент-реформатор Лула де Сильва назначил ее начальницей своего аппарата (и на этом посту женщин до Дилмы не было) — после этого все ожидали, что она станет его преемницей. Ее политическая карьера примечательна. Член радикального рабочего движения, она два года провела в тюрьме. После назначения Русеф министром энергетики в 2001 году ее взгляды стали меняться на более прагматичные и «капиталистические».
В свободное от политики время Русеф любит бывать в театре – предпочитает классическую греческую драму и оперу.
