German Chancellor Scholz throws angry response at chants of 'warmonger'

Synopsis

Chancellor Olaf Schultz experiences a rare outburst of anger during a gathering of his party near Berlin. Protesters disrupt his speech, accusing him of being a warmonger for his government's military support of Ukraine. The event, part of a social Democrats' meeting in Brandenburg, sees Schultz responding passionately to chants calling for peace without weapons. He emphasizes that the real warmonger is Vladimir Putin, not himself. This incident highlights the ongoing division within German society regarding military aid to Ukraine, as a recent poll indicates that a majority of Germans oppose sending warplanes to Ukraine, despite the Ukrainian government's requests for such support.
