Chancellor Merkel admitted that Germany is no longer able to maintain its existing social and economic system!

Merkel announced at the CDU conference that Germany can no longer afford the huge costs of maintaining the existing social and economic system: "We must establish a new social security system, we can no longer afford the system we have today!"

Merkel believes that Germany does not have the economic resources to ensure the financial sustainability of the welfare system, and it is necessary to change the system of paying citizens' allowances, "This will be a painful decision, it will mean cuts."

Germany has been in a serious economic crisis in recent years, starting from the pandemic, then the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which worsened after the stoppage of Russian gas supplies.
