The Minister of Finance of Germany and the main economy of Europe Scholz said that there were no conditions for its opening and the resumption of the work of all enterprises.

“Now is not the time to fully open up, now is the time to act very tough and contain the increase in the number of infections,” said Scholz. According to him, Germany will still have a chance to fully cope with the coronavirus and its consequences and ensure stable growth for its own economy.

Therefore, the German authorities once again changed their opinions and their minds to make adjustments to the pandemic containment strategy. Previously, the head of the federal state of North Rhine Westphalia Laschet has offered to the heads of the various regions to be flexible and adjust the imposed restrictions depending on the situation in each particular federal state. Later, he argued for the introduction of a nationwide lockdown.
