Olaf Scholz voted in as German leader as Merkel era ends


Recommended Posts

END OF AN ERA, GERMANY

ANGELA MERKEL DEPARTS AT THE RIGHT TIME, FOR HER. SHE HELPED WAYWARD FRANCE AND OTHERS TO REFLECT SENSES. ONE MAJOR ERROR (MOST LIKELY AS ADVISED TO DO) SHE ADVERTISED FOR 1M FOREIGN PEOPLE TO COME TO GERMANY INSTEAD OF SEEKING THE UNEMPLOYED FROM WITHIN THE EURO ZONE.

THE FUTURE IS NOT SO ROSY AS IT APPEARS. LOT OF STORED UP PROBLEMS IN THE EURO ZONE. WATCH THIS SPACE!

Angela Merkel: A career in pictures

Angela Merkel steps down as German chancellor on Wednesday after 16 years in power, bringing an end to a political career which has spanned more than three decades.

It is a career documented in pictures at every turn: from visiting fishermen during her earliest campaigns, to talks at the White House, and everything in between.

Here, we have collected just a few from the thousands capturing the woman who has been at the helm of Germany for so many years.
