German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who succeeded Angela Merkel as chancellor in early December, calls for the public to stand together in the fight against the pandemic and support his government's
planned renewal of the country in his first new year's address to the nation.
The new Chancellor appealed to all Germans to get vaccinated amid a massive fifth wave of infections in the country driven by the Omicron coronavirus variant. Scholz asked for understanding regarding the significantly tightened restrictions that have just come into force in Germany, including the limits on private gatherings.
Other than tackling the pandemic, the biggest challenge was to lay the foundation for Germany's continued advancement, Scholz continued. "The 2020s will be a decade of new beginnings," he said.
Scholz also said that his centre-left coalition government intended to transform the German economy. "We will be able to master the great changes of our era collectively and communally, if we stick together as a society," Scholz concluded.
