Chancellor Friedrich Merz gives a speech. He speaks in the parliament. He defends the new plans. The government wants to improve the country. There are 34 new ideas.
The government changes the taxes. People with little money pay less. Rich people pay more. This is fair for everyone. The pension changes too.
A part of the pension comes from the stock market. This keeps the pension stable. Companies get fewer rules. This is called less red tape. The job market changes too.
Bosses can give temporary jobs for longer. This helps to hire new people. Sick people need a paper from the doctor early. Many people do not like this.
There is anger in the party CDU. People dislike Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil. He wants to borrow much money. It is 203 billion Euro in 2027. Some politicians want to leave the government.
Merz warns against radical groups. These groups speak bad about the country. He praises the NATO meeting in Ankara. The center of politics works for freedom.
