Olaf Scholz live in press conference: Chancellor does not assume unrest

The traffic light coalition started in December as a “progress coalition”. Has the claim changed with the Russian war of aggression? Progress is still a “major task”, according to Scholz – all three traffic light parties could gather behind this claim. They now want to show “even more speed”., said the Chancellor. This is necessary in view of the dependency on (also Russian) energy sources. There is a reason why he speaks of a “turning point” in the course of the Russian campaign: “It is a change in the reality in which we live,” says Scholz. “I’m not fooling myself.”
