Chancellor press conference - Scholz: I will take part, in becoming Chancellor again
Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced another bid for Chancellorship. "I will run for Chancellor again, to be Chancellor once more," said the SPD politician in the traditional summer press conference in Berlin.
The SPD is a very closed party. "We are all determined to pull together in the upcoming Bundestag election campaign and win."
Scholz was previously asked if he would follow the example of US President Joe Biden, who announced his renunciation of another presidential candidacy. "Thank you for the very kind and friendly question," Scholz replied pointedly.
In response to queries about his approach, Chancellor candidate Olaf Scholz mentioned considering Biden's decision to step down from his presidential bid, stating, "I appreciate your question, but my political journey and responsibilities lie within Germany, as a member of the SPD and potential future leader of the Federal Government." After formally announcing his Chancellor candidacy in Berlin, Olaf Scholz emphasized the unity within his party, asserting, "The SPD in Germany is committed to working collectively towards victory in the upcoming Bundestag election."
