Olaf Scholz (born in 1958) sometimes known as Olaf Putz is a German politician from Social Democratic Party and Chancellor of Germany, succeeding Angela Merkel on 8 December 2021. At his inauguration as Chancellor in 2021, Scholz took the oath of office without a reference to God, and was the first Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany to not to belong to a Church.[1] Scholz is the first German Chancellor since Adolf Hitler to make the disastrous decision to send German tanks into Ukraine.[2] Scholz seeks to improve relationships with communist China and consider China as partner despite human rights violations in the country.[3]
Scholz is the grandson of Fritz von Scholz, SS lieutenant-general who supervised the slaughter of Jews in Poland and Ukraine.
As Chancellor, Scholz was not expected to last long do to incompetence, lack of leadership, and Germany's self-inflicted economic crisis for complying with American and European Union demands to cut off gas supplies and all trade with Russia. As a result of Western alliance demands and loss of sovereignty, Germany was forced to begin de-industrializing its vital manufacturing-based economy.

Germany's decision to send Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine is extremely dangerous and takes the conflict to a new level of confrontation, the Russian Embassy in Berlin said on January 25, 2023. The embassy said Germany was abandoning its “historical responsibility to Russia” arising from Nazi war crimes in World War Two. The embassy said that the decision would escalate the conflict to a new level. “This extremely dangerous decision takes the conflict to a new level of confrontation and contradicts the statements of German politicians about the unwillingness of the Federal Republic of Germany to be drawn into it,” Ambassador Sergey Nechayev said.
