このコンテンツについて
Olaf Scholz may no longer be chancellor of Germany, but in the past few days he has still been a man history refuses to move past. German and international coverage continues to frame him as the defeated center left leader whose loss paved the way for conservative Friedrich Merz, and that contrast has quietly become the dominant new chapter in his biography. BalkanWeb reports that former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev recently mocked both Scholz and Emmanuel Macron after their parties heavy defeats in the European elections, saying they should essentially retire from politics, a comment that underscores how Scholzs decline is being weaponized abroad as proof of Europes supposed weakness. BalkanWeb also recalls that, after Germanys national election loss earlier this year, Scholz publicly conceded defeat and congratulated his conservative rival Merz, calling the result bitter for his Social Democrats a moment many German commentators now see as the formal closing scene of the Scholz chancellorship and a defining test of his reputation as a procedural, almost old fashioned democrat who bows to the arithmetic of the ballot rather than clinging to power.
More quietly but no less significantly, the international press keeps tying Scholz to the ongoing Ukraine war debate. Europe focused podcasts like Europe News Today continue to refer back to his now famous refusal to send Taurus long range cruise missiles to Kyiv during his time in office, portraying that decision as the emblem of a cautious security doctrine that still shapes expectations of Germany even under his successor. That recurrent framing suggests future biographies will treat Taurus not as a side note but as one of the core decisions of the Scholz era.
In terms of fresh forward looking news, Caixin Global reports that the upcoming visit of Germanys current foreign minister to China is explicitly described as preparation for a future trip by Olaf Scholz as former chancellor, a reminder that Beijing and Berlin still view him as a valuable channel on economic and Ukraine related diplomacy. That planned role as elder statesman may end up giving the post chancellorship phase of his life more international weight than many assumed on election night.
There have been no credible reports in major outlets of explosive new business ventures or scandalous private escapades; any rumors circulating on fringe social media about Scholz plotting a surprise comeback remain unconfirmed and, for now, firmly in the realm of speculation.
