BERLIN (AP) — Germany’s chancellor used his New Year’s speech to call on his country’s citizens not to lose confidence in the future as they adapt to a world experiencing multiple crises and changing at an ever-faster pace.

“So much suffering; so much bloodshed. Our world has become a more unsettled and harsher place. It’s changing at an almost breathtaking speed,” Chancellor Olaf Scholz said in the prerecorded speech to be broadcast Sunday.

      lol yeah he’s not giving many public speeches, but i rather have this than some attention seeker who has to be in the news 24/7 posing with cans of beans from his sponsors or holding bibles up upside down.
