BERLIN (AP) — Chancellor Olaf Scholz is vowing that his new government will win the fight against the coronavirus pandemic and make Germany “structurally fit” for the 21st century. He promised Wednesday that efforts to combat climate change will be central to its agenda as he made his first major policy speech to parliament. Scholz, who took over from longtime Chancellor Angela Merkel last week, declared that “we have no time to waste” as he opened a presentation of his government’s platform.
