  • German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier believes we have overcome the worst of the coronavirus pandemic. Solidarity has grown stronger through the crisis, the president said in his Christmas address to the nation.
    There has rarely been a year when the main topic of the address has been so clear and all-consuming from the outset. In previous years, the head of state usually addressed various social issues at Christmas. But this time, his speech deals almost exclusively with the coronavirus pandemic.

    There’s always light at the end of each tunnel. It just depends on how long the tunnel is.

      Maybe it's a tunnel with a dead end. Maybe they built this tunnel and didn't have enough money to finish it. Maybe it's not a tunnel at all. Maybe it's a huge grave.

    Ich denke, es ist bemerkenswert, dass ein Präsident unvollständige Informationen, Synonyme, Assoziation, Irreführende, Auswärtswinkel, Körpersprache, Duplizierungsgeist und Schweigen verwenden kann. Vermeiden Sie beispielsweise die Diskussion über die staatlichen Gebäude.

    • @Thor.Jorgensen
      @Thor.Jorgensen 3 года назад

      The president of Germany has the right and duty to act politically, a constitutional monarch does not have that right, nor is it their duty.
      In fact, in many countries, if a constitutional monarch acts politically, they will risk ending the constitutional monarchy and turn the country into a full-on republic, in both name and practice.
      A constitutional monarch is FULLY ceremonial. The German president acts both ceremonially and politically.
      A constitutional monarch, for example, does not have the right, let alone duty, to appoint new federal judges, military officers, or federal civil servants. Nor do constitutional monarchs have any veto power. The German president does. And it Is just, for he was elected the title, he did not inherit it.

    A recent United Nations report entitled Livestock's Long Shadow concludes that eating meat is "one of the top two or three most significant contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global". The report finds that eating meat causes almost 40 per cent more greenhouse-gas emissions than all the cars, trucks, ships and planes in the world combined.
