Exactly 45 minutes, the new German Chancellor Friedrich Merz spoke in his first statement in the Bundestag – not a second than announced. This precision was more than style: it was a message. A Chancellor who specifies the clock requires efficiency – and therefore sets the tone for a government government.
“With a four -day week and a balance between work and private life, we will not be able to maintain the prosperity of this country.” With this sentence, Chancellor Friedrich Merz heralded his first major speech as head of the government. It was a profession – but also a clear announcement of a lifestyle that has become more important in recent years. More time for family, health, leisure? From the point of view of the new Chancellor this is no longer enough.
