Scholz nominated as SPD party's chancellor candidate after weeks of doubt
Germany's centre-left Social Democracts have chosen to officially nominate current Chancellor Olaf Scholz as their party's candidate despite his low approval ratings.
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has sharply criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for his recent remarks against German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. In a bold response, Rutte called Zelensky’s attacks on Scholz “unfair,” stating that such criticism undermines diplomatic efforts. The tension arose after Zelensky publicly condemned Scholz for his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his refusal to supply Ukraine with advanced weaponry, such as Taurus cruise missiles. Rutte's statement reflects growing concern over the impact of internal disagreements on European unity and NATO’s collective strategy. Watch now to see Rutte’s strong rebuke of Zelensky’s actions.
