Scholz said he wants to make progress in green energy policy together with Spain.<\/p>\n

\u00abSpain and Germany are both very ambitious. We want to achieve fast progress in the expansion of renewables,\u00bb the chancellor said.<\/p>\n

\u00abThe expansion of wind and solar power – that is important. And of course this also includes doing everything we can to make this an economically successful enterprise, to ensure that the grids are good and that there are good connections between us and our neighbours,\u00bb said Scholz.<\/p>\n

Scholz received a thank you from S\u00e1nchez for his support in the negotiations for EU financial aid to overcome the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

As the then-German finance minister in 2020, \u00abScholz played a leading role in this matter. I thank him for that,\u00bb S\u00e1nchez said during a joint press conference.<\/p>\n

Spain was hit particularly hard by the pandemic in 2020 and is benefiting from the EU recovery aid.<\/p>\n

In terms of combatting the pandemic, Spain has a higher vaccination rate than Germany, with at least 85 per cent of Spaniards having had at least one shot, compared to 75 per cent of Germans.<\/p>\n

Since taking office, Scholz has already travelled to France, Poland and Italy, and has also made trips to the European Union and NATO headquarters in Brussels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
