guzman, jim sidle, which went counter 2 decades of transportation, and decided to support your crane with the very weapons they need in. they are a brave struggle every day, and we'll stick to that. standing showed us, she showed up in our closest allies and they were due. so as long as this horrible, dreadful and criminal, we will laugh. porcelain gently over him, a decent league. russia hassle does not speak, waging his wants a gift for. and for that, it was very important that the g, 20 summit and barley send out a strong signal towards moscow. and another thing to commit it was something which all the g trader members noted. namely, as for any nuclear threat of taboo is yeah, totally unacceptable for every one of us accepting the use of these weapons is not for us that we are being me already is even for the it's not i know the of the chain of the g 7 i already held us with the same opinion and i'm very glad that

this is a red line and that on barley, we made it clear against the chinese leadership also publicly affirm his opinion for the very 1st time when i visited beijing 3 weeks again, also just for that reason or the open exchange with the president, she was worth it. i think just for that reason, the whole trip with you, mr. matthew, you still polemicist, without thinking in advance. this has been worth it on keith bonus, or gil 100 of them gone. the underused government also acts within the framework of the european union, ukrainian, moldova, anatole, appears in the future. also, georgia have been opened at a, by the opportunity to join the european union for many years the west or can stay there, have been meandering and avoid when he came to the accession process. we've given at new momentum talking of these fellas, it's actually this government which clear idea and put that into word as far as the

future as euro biskin son, something which the french president and others had to wait years to hear president illinois like paul, i mr. seal and his gear is indians mcgraw only we agree on having a euro, which is a geo political entity and a capable to take additional prague and made concrete proposals on that on bite. and we are working on those with our partners. one of these proposals being the missile defenses that germany and visiting only last week, english with france and was failure. we manage this year to achieve something which was in court. and for this to teach if sovereignty of germany, my age, were able to cut through the gold yet not all light like the f customer is going to be longer initiated. after for many years self project did not have the necessary political attention in berlin. that a judge that at the same time until under there is a substantial german part in the development of technology as well as the added

value of your journal be generated from it. that's that honestly, it is government. we bring europe together and that is to the benefit of our country on to lie in this you diesel, not the same science this garden, impossible to is in this thing england. a modern infrastructure in ledger ties, a chanel locked, so germany is no longer a country of difference between the 2 bridges that don't work. the trains that are laid and man, oh, covers that provide a bump, his rival. and that's what we did this summer with the 9 euro public transport ticket. we were a clean, sweet, new room for public to unskilled digital are now to can with the on but digital germany a ticker down at 1000000000 more funds for regionalization. we make sure we will have a long term attracted humbly, municipal trans. what in this country feasible?

as the younger it is, this government like that re phone and immigration laws i cover, and we also make sure that we have better skilling up scaling, reese, killing opportunities for those living in this country. so gradually, we try to close the gap to get out of the lack of skilled labor, which is something which is a legacy problem with this government. as i understand, well, deal with all these things which were left behind despite the ukrainian or despite the pandemic, the energy crisis, the supply chain problems, and global inflation plus $900.00. does that sound been on them? is no one at in the 1st 11 months. so for our government, should we have initiated almost 11 market acts of parliament encoding some of the biggest release packages for the citizens that our country has seen in its own histories. and adding counsel a law on balancing li inflationary effects. which means like what, 8000000 people will pay far less in taxes. but you are,

you've heard against that. we actually implement really and a new version of the madison any here that you, mr. man, that there at your party conferences and girls in there actually say it wasn't the last 16 years of the cd. you let government much caused the problems? no, it was the last 16 weeks on our our new coalition government there currently learned where dusk lola guilt is mentioned that if you believe that you believe that her, they have talking white robbins as well. this is alice in wonderland. until welcome to the wonderland of the c d. u. c su where reality has been turned on its head. it is done. these are born of the young had re it

is that this government in 12 months has actually done more implemented marg. sorted more then was possible in the last 12 years of the previous government by the end of the year old data. and that's because we are a government of action. and we started to make progress in this country. lessons of her own more decided to get my master's as guns of what makes unter sets us apart. mr. math is clearly the idea. we have over there. are it doesn't mr. the in the beauteous days yet we discussed intensively about the base against them. support burger gail to citizens income and i'm glad that we found relish and agreement a good solution, but then it's one thing i would like to mention. what we are now turning into law is nothing other than what at the time with us about of the now of position we

rightly introduced during a toe with pandemic. that was a time when many people employed self employed suddenly, depending on like state assistance on, although they never have granite, they would have to do his otherwise they would have lost their apartments. we couldn't take away all their assets or their housing. that was something which at the time you all on these don't vigorous tickets and it's that the same idea of justice as what, which guy is the reforms we're not going to agree on 20 years ago. and the labor market reforms were implemented at the time. we didn't have a work for all the people who need it, work now we are lacking qualified, or skilled labor. that's why we need to skilling options, training, less bureaucracy. these are very important and integral parts of all reform is here, bigger goals of the line. it's about finding ways out of long term unemployment away from jobs which are just re job and not

a job in the proper labor market, which we want to help people find again when i talk to citizens, for example, in the dialogues i heard him act about as no ben gifford, to name, but if you know how many people aren't just worried about the higher prices for energy and buy food, whether they're concerned about their jobs or the future of their company minus guns law, the burger voice one, find very clear. people want to worry about our buy and i want to be able to live a decent life on the basis of their working on don't just indeed gaining the or not is my listen, i'm love who get to it and keep things running on the once i get up in the morning and start to word it. these other people that we focus on in our political agenda in this loan of. and that's why it was important for us actually. and how about raised the national minimum wage? in 12 years, 600000000 people were getting more weight,

more salary and have greater appreciation for the hard work they're doing over the middest long end of legal, even a higher minimum wage in the nursing care center. the paying people who are looking after our old age citizen as well. that is something which will improve local conditions there. and this effects one of the most important and most car hit the really go it's john told section in our country, all those who earn less than $2000.00 a month will pay less social benefit and contribution. it's wrong that next year, anybody who is only about $1100.00 theories will end up with 50 or as more in their personal financing. them. that is particularly important for people to impact on work single, harold, but also for it cassia and a sofa. moscow to somebody who works the dry cleaners. it's important we doing that now. i lined the unable just kinda go there just lazy in child rearing and loans to to written 50. i mean, i didn't, across the board will mean that as a kid,

a family with 2 kids will have $750.00 or as more for from next year i the special child allowance for people with a smaller working on income will be up to $3000.00 euros a year of her child, and this is the way we deliver on our promise that in our prosperous country, not a single child will have to go out and poverty. what's my bottom? nobody goes to one game of 2 weeks ago. we introduced the largest housing allowance reform in this country, which will raise the number of people entitled to receive this allowance 2 or 2000000 from face generally next year. which will mean they have a few 100 euros more to spend every month. and that will benefit politically those we work hard on and yet you don't manage to get more than the minimum wage. all have a very, very small pension. yeah, this is the way we get people out of a basic income supported. they've worked hard for all their lives.

leave legal polygons via long doctor does. ab, i know the connie's. we are the ones to make sure that word from is worth more than it was at any time of this. either. you let german garvey lender and we do so by helping the situation for those who work hard and only does is them dinner. their unique blizzard is in the interest of those would want him to work. it's only interest self. the companies that that had the desperate for labor and he thought in the interests of our own country that in these difficult times, particularly we need more for cohesion and less finance division on shows on my kids. are they decent gentlemanly in the standing together? why is also an important feature when we tried to support those who may have a decent income, but also get it all by travel because of the price, right?

some financial contribution as can be offset. again, i tell us entirely that will be a major impact. they let us in the next 2 years on law, it was on there and that is one more thing. we have the chief inflatables as far giblin, the only concerted action which we initiated by employers alliance as paint the ground. i, for one of payments up to 3, failure to have a photo uri's a year, in addition to the collective bargaining price i rises. and i think this is evidence for the responsibility shown by the social part as in germany, that's an instrument we make usa, unannounced weekly metal workers and electronic and electric industry. li agreed on no special on a payment of $3000.00 euros between units and employers. and many other sectors they ought to provide an energy. i inflation bonus, the bank asleep at the car, manufacturers, chemical industry, paper, repub, industry, iron and steel industry. they do the same thing. and after a major progress,

benefiting many of our people are going to work every single day coordinates the over i'm be here to them, thus injured 2 weeks ago that we decided on a lot to balances ago, inflation. it's an invasion compensation act which will provide relief for many taxpayers 2023. we're talking about $19000000.00 tax release. $32000000.00, other taxes less in the coming a year. that includes the compensation for co progression. it also means i very noticeable an increase of the tax exempt allowance, lack of child rearing allowance of a child to pay. these are all reforms that we initiated. death. authentic logger absorbed on. sure. his lawyer. clear rejection of a creeping tax hike, their car, and the biggest tax hike it does happen because of the largest co progression that

i had ever seen in the past. so our message to the citizens, is this gonna make sure that it's worth buying that performing well? and that germany and german citizens can emerge from this crisis strongly on the roads deal. we're design good graces or not to day. we can say our chemistry, fine gosh, i can master it. if i mentioned the air gas storage towels which are full, the new liquid gasoline co fact power plants which re keep her operating produce the nuclear power plants which will keep running. all of that means that for this winter, germany ways are vickie security. i supply your and we have that because to germany, as we are german government has been bold in redirecting our energies. and because households all over the country have been very saving energy and that will remain important particular with a view to coming here in the coming winter in 2023 to sure. yet, i would like to say thank you to our citizens already. thank you for looking ahead

. thank you for acting together. we couldn't, under the, didn't a get my the meet watched in the energy price, i guess not something we can completely compensate for or reduce but we are reducing it to an except of the level of the reduction off turn of attacks a for listen seating and gas heating for motors ampersand has already been agreed on taking over the advanced payment december for gas and heating will also come after intake deliberations, including with the european union and the energy providers. the framework has been agreed for the gas and electricity price ceiling for households and companies at any to tell him or you can read it in the press to day that we're coming to fossil the 1st in march. it will be paid out and therefore not just be a relief for the month of march, but also retroactively for the month, january and february. alyssa gung many guess

consumers have received only letters from their gas providers or they are landlords of having a 2030, sometimes 40 percent price rise per kilowatt hour. in the past, it was something like 7 or $0.08 for you out of 18 percent of retire prior years. fuel consumption is going to be a cap of 2 by $1210.00 per kilowatt hour. for many people, this will mean it's additional cost, but these additional costs are far below the prices now announced by the energy providers, got the prices even with him or reduced either crazy or difficult for those to get to deal with will have a problem. that's why we have a hardship case fund from the stabilization fund. $12000000.00 theories in total will be wide. gossley plus interest all goes on to them. regarding the course offered in electricity, gas and heating decker. one, get the, the, the price caps will mean will end up more or less at the level of where expert see

the prices for 2024. and by that time, we'll have more liquid gas terminals all the way up. and then the accelerator use of this renewable energy will also does have a significant impact. and that's why it's important than yes, as a one off. we really, when i spend the 200000000 euro huge sum in order to deal with that. because that will not be that the loss of the rusty hundreds of thousands of works without the loss off the problems that people will face. we will dig some, i've on the radio that there's an all country house, the string of master that crazy, most likely the affair mad in batch of that. i mean, mobilize all that power with our kitchen, economic sedation fund than the relief packages which we've already been passing gradually over the past few months. i would like to thank the finance minister and the minister of economic affairs and out of the coalition government for supporting

us on this course which will steer germany safely through turbulent waters. listen, jarod. the next years will be decisive with yours to strengthen germany in europe. to make his fit for the big change with climate change, digitization london, securing our prosperity, the social cohesion and demographic change of minds and in fortune together, we feel ain't does we dish. we are obliged to accept progress. we are united by seeing the opportunities in these changes on the off poppy park. we have a 1st exploratory paper, our new laws, and that was where we agreed on our, our joint objectives. when the new coalition government started at the beginning, there was a joint commitment made by all 3 coalition partners loyal in favor of progress. when you don't like i taking action this for the future of his fancy. and that is

the spirit with which we started our work and that is the spirit which keeps carrying as forward. then the need side, melanie's been in dunk because when this m a watershed, this turning of the times i missed them out. thank you very much for referring to let me know if that moment a global crisis taught is one thing then noticed that as well that we need to change this kind of business as usual. if not an auction another the ugly underwood you briefly looked at. you on purpose because the business as usual party is now on the opposition benches, and that's why they should feed although missed as good as on the london, even though you're good being that in this day and age of our country has

a government other wants to do more than business as like, we have made clear from the beginning all that a future of our energy supplying, ah, is part and parcel of renewable energy is green up behind a janie was lunch. so me become not just independent of unreliable supplies that russia, we also protect the climate, and we manage to release energy cost, jesus yog, to an acceptable level. that's why we use this here to pass important roles laws that we will need in order to extend renewables. and to extend the grid and transmission networks for and i wasn't enough to mildly mark conference. and we know before as big as a climate conference at the beginning of a new government for saving your greenhouse gases, extending renewables. ambitious goals are usually set and usually these are beautiful words and nothing happens, but the steps to reach that whenever actually implemented in concrete full owns,

etc. that is something we have changed. our objective by 203080 percent of our energy shall come from renewable energy is accompanied with a very clear idea of how to extend these. for example, with the tender volumes for high on shore wind parks or photovoltaics, we will increase almost double that the extension of renewable energy is now something which will be given priority in administrative decision and accelerated planning procedures. this has been informed me by law. the law, 2 percent of the territory of the country will be available for wind power in the future in order to achieve greater acceptance of these for the citizens. new ways of participating, love participation has been a lie. i have been achieved an target better economic involvement as well. just by introduced reducing the renewable energy lever. we not only reduced energy cost me also help to a gated. these are mass

d bureaucratized energy which was more than necessary of many companies and the solar and wind sector have suffered in recent years. not just on the because of cobra, but also because bureaucracy on because the way ahead wasn't clear, but now there is clear progress once in the 1st half of 2020 being a power generation from wind power is increased by 18 percent of in in versus the prior year, looking at offshore wind power since mid 2020, nothing had been happening until in the summer. for the 1st time we started operating new vicki went power plants and more will follow as far as transport is concerned, biofuels that share is risen by 1211 percent and out of electric batteries, i 14 percent compared to the prior year. so all together is renewable energy in the 1st 6 months of this year for the very 1st time we're responsible for covering about 50 percent of germany's energy and the as dresser. denise, i was a lot less than a year before. so we have going in the right direction and

on the curly walden gifford, is it all sense form of zoom in order to achieve this huge and bone transformation, industry transport, construction and housing, when it more than just right, political framework we need ah, the people doing the work when the company swing up at technology, when he of the ways that the skill people that build the wind turbines and install the new systems in housing. that's why we promote up scaling and re skilling. that's why we make sure that our politics, unions, companies, civil society or brought together on a regular basis for our discussions. in concrete terms. the next i'm, our alliance will lead in february we will begin decide, how can we develop those technologies? and so have them spread all over the country that are needed for this transformation, particularly the redefined region 12. these are question which are essential to mine, and they're essential that you're always listening to that one of them. because the

emerging nation is in asia, africa, latin america, and the caribbean national switzer. they will only me to last, also join climate prediction on an international scale or if there people don't suffer unduly from out of my discussions. utley sharma che climate conference made that very clear additional game. but in order to do that, when he had technologies that allow a climate neutral growth of a learning below, dive in here. so this dog is where there is a huge opportunity for german industry, our machine, the plant equipment builders to carmakers, even they're the ones who are healthy, innovative power, or have their r and d capacity that can create and supply the necessary technology all over the world. that is a huge demand for that even now, so that will open up new market opportunities is by 2045. germany will be one of

the worst glam at neutral industrial nations, and that's exactly what we aim to achieve and we will make it even colleague and colleague, they're priced on a collier one for a license. the price of doing nothing. one will be in a comfortably high quality, so the deficits of energy and trade policy, which led to a unilateral dependence on the, on particular russia and china that something we are stopping. and after years of neglect, we now want to achieve a modern, strong armed forces, which is capable of defending the country. by so many years of deficits and a backward looking transport, policy, and deficits and digitization of our country, our matters. we are now tackling their thank you big in fact, and this is why we are the gains. i'm down the like a skilled lab. and after years of blockaded these matters, we create

a new immigration law which is state of the art and it's an army recognized certainly housing construction as a central that by mid for social question which can't be dealt with as an also ran hardy in you and one other ministry, so the many people who put the brake on energy and climate change, how many years need to be overcome? but above all, what we do is we need to keep the country together. get finished on the hill. i'm one day won't for, for over leave or anybody behind ganske and all our citizens know very well that fact of what we wanted to work, we want all the content progresses to pill. he's english standing together, it focusing on what really matters. and that's what less government us down to our new particular mr. manson or your colleagues. you. accordingly, i didn't work with us on this on big job of making our country fit for the future. in a world which sees profound changes, you shall be fit for the crisis fit for the winter where we are at work. but we

need energy and resolutions from every citizens. and we will have that thanks to the work of this government. i was addressing that the german parliament thereabout his governor was spending plans for the coming year. he positioned his government as a government of action. he talked about a new dorner taking action, and germany spoke about germany's involvement in ukraine in the new dialogue with china that focused a lot also on the support it was offering it citizens from raising the national minimum wage to creating a modern and accessible france full system and of course a big focus on helping people pay their energy bills, which was a huge issue in germany right now. and he does his chief political correspondent, nina honda is at the german bundis tag,

listening to the chancellor speaking. nina, what are your main takeaways from what the chancellor just said? well, yeah, you've essentially mentioned all the important talking points. what i always find interesting in these situations is that all of choice is not considered to be a very good public speaker. so he does go into detail quite a bit and he does sort of a sum up all his results, all the progress that has been made. and he does really challenge, is listeners to pay attention. what is the message was of course, was we've got things under control about we do have to now what really, really hard. one of the key takeaways for me, for example, was that the whole topic of the climate crisis was mentioned away at the back of his speech. so he focused a lot on all the other aspects that germany is now currently struggling with you blamed the previous governments,

especially when it comes to the neglect that they show that they showed the german armed forces, but also the an infrastructure so broken bridges and holds in the roads, etc. so yeah, you did say we do have to clean up this mess that you left us and then add to that the, the other big shock of cause rushes invasion and ukraine. so we are faced with a lot of challenges. but we are working hard, he stress the fact that his government has passed a 100 laws in the 1st 11 months of their tenure. so this is as something where he wanted to show just how busy they've been. and when it comes to the topic of the climate crisis, he does see that very much as something where the german economy has to focus if they don't want to essentially lose their competition with other players worldwide . so he always stresses this fact that this is something where the german industry has to go into renewable energies. if germany wants to stay a big global player,

you're absolutely right. he gets really passionate in, in these debates, doesn't he? and he really went for the criticism. 2 of the opposition lead us like mad. i mean, he described him as living in an alice in wonderland, a fairy fairyland. these and budget debates that traditionally and an opportunity for that for the opposition to to attack the german chancellor. who do you think one in this debate? i would actually say all our shores. i mean essentially he did say to of liberation meds, look, you are criticizing us of things when you then have to later agree that we were right from the start. and it's true that term, for example, federation mads did criticize all of choices planned trip to china very, very strongly. and later on we'll have shorts. got their chinese president.
