German Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) reacted emotionally to bells and whistles during a speech about the solidarity of the people in the Corona crisis and with the refugees from Ukraine. At the start of the SPD state election campaign on Saturday in Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia, he verbally attacked a group of suspected corona critics.
The chancellor said he was proud of the citizens’ solidarity with the refugees from Ukraine. Solidarity also applies “when we talk about health. When we talk about how we can protect each other.
whistles and squeaks
For example, during the entire corona pandemic,” Scholz explained, while the whistling and beeping got louder and louder. “And I say that because there are people who shout out loud: Hello! Shout it out, because this is what we are fighting for and what the citizens of Ukraine are fighting for. That you can speak your thoughts out loud without fear.”
Scholz emphasized freedom of speech in a democracy like Germany: “That’s why I accept the malicious cynicism with which some say you can’t say your opinion on this subject here, don’t. It’s a lie! Look around the dictatorships of these world and you’ll know what that means,” the 63-year-old exclaimed.
“It’s not because you shout out loud that you’re right. But you need a few arguments for that. And one of those arguments is that the corona pandemic is a major threat to all of humanity.”
