About Olaf Scholz

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olaf_Scholz

Olaf Scholz born 14 June 1958) is a German politician and the current candidate for Chancellor of Germany of the Social Democratic Party (SPD). Since 14 March 2018, he has been serving as Vice Chancellor of Germany and Federal Minister of Finance. He previously served as First Mayor of Hamburg from 2011 to 2018 and was Deputy Leader of the Social Democratic Party from 2009 to 2019.

Scholz is a lawyer and was called to the bar in 1985, specialising in labour and employment law. He became a member of the SPD in the 1970s and was a member of the Bundestag from 1998 to 2011. He served in the Hamburg Government under First Mayor Ortwin Runde in 2001, before his election as General Secretary of the SPD in 2002, serving alongside the SPD leader and Chancellor Gerhard Schröder. After stepping down as General Secretary in 2004, he became his party's Chief Whip in the Bundestag, later entering the First Merkel Government in 2007 as Minister of Labour and Social Affairs. After the SPD left the Government following the 2009 election, Scholz returned to lead the SPD in Hamburg, and was also elected Deputy Leader of the SPD. He led his party to victory in the 2011 elections, becoming First Mayor, holding that role until 2018.

After the SPD entered the Fourth Merkel Government in 2018, Scholz was appointed as both Minister of Finance and Vice Chancellor of Germany. In 2019, Scholz ran on a joint ticket with former Brandenburg state representative Klara Geywitz for the newly introduced dual leadership of the SPD. Despite winning the most votes in the first round, the pair lost with 45% of the vote in the ensuing run-off to the winners Norbert Walter-Borjans and Saskia Esken. He subsequently stepped down from his position as Deputy Leader.

Об Олафе Шольце (русский)

О́лаф Шольц (нем. Olaf Scholz; род. 14 июня 1958, Оснабрюк) — немецкий политический и государственный деятель. Федеральный канцлер Германии с 8 декабря 2021 года. Член СДПГ[4].

Бургомистр Гамбурга в 2011—2018 годах, вице-канцлер Германии и министр финансов Германии в 2018—2021 годах.

Шольц родился в семье текстильщика 14 июня 1958 года в Оснабрюке, в Нижней Саксонии, но вырос в гамбургском районе Ральштедт[5].

Шольц присоединился к СДПГ в 1975 году, будучи учеником старшей школы, где он стал участником Jusos (сокращение от «Молодые социалисты»), молодёжной организации СДПГ. С 1982 года по 1988 год он был заместителем федерального председателя Jusos, с 1987 года по 1989 год также был вице-президентом Международного союза социалистической молодежи. Во время работы в Jusos он поддерживал Freudenberger Kreis (крыло Stamokap университетских групп Jusos), а также журнал SPW и в статьях пропагандировал «преодоление капиталистической экономики». В нём Шольц критикует «агрессивно-империалистическую Организацию Североатлантического договора», Федеративную республику как «европейский оплот большого бизнеса» и социально-либеральную коалицию, которая ставит «голое сохранение власти выше любых форм предметных споров».

В 1985 году Шольц окончил Гамбургский университет, став специалистом по трудовому праву.
