Merkel has stepped down, and many people have always wondered whether Merkel will take up other positions and continue to contribute to Germany, after all, after so many years of painstaking management, now that the new German chancellor has taken office, whether there will be a change in attitude towards China in the future will affect everything Merkel has done before, and it is likely to ruin all her previous efforts. In addition, people are also very interested in Merkel's life after retirement. After all, after working in the post of prime minister for so many years, I need to deal with a lot of things every day, the pace of work is very fast, and it is definitely not used to suddenly idle now.
What is Merkel's life like today?
Merkel has been able to sit in this position for 16 years, and she must have her own superiority. Merkel has dedicated 16 years to the country, and the country will certainly have some arrangements after she retires, so what is Merkel's life like today? It is reported that she has moved into a cheap apartment in Berlin, which shows that Merkel is still a relatively low-key person, and she did not choose to buy a luxurious villa as a future pension life. In fact, Merkel's family is still good, plus her husband still works in the university, is a quantum chemist, has a contract with the university, and also holds a lot of income.
It is reasonable to say that with Merkel and her husband's savings for so many years, it is enough for them to live in a better apartment. It is understood that after Merkel's retirement, the maximum subsidy she can get from parliamentarians can reach at least 65%. Merkel will get an office of her own, but also equipped with assistants, drivers, typists, etc., which are the necessary treatment for every retired president and chancellor of Germany, and her safety is not to worry, the country has long arranged for this, and will arrange special bodyguards to protect her. After all, a person with a special status like Merkel, during the administration, refugees will cause dissatisfaction in other countries and organizations because of some policies, and naturally set up many enemies, in order to ensure her safety, special personnel will be arranged to protect her.
Merkel rejected the new political position
Merkel is still looking forward to retirement, she said that she will have more time to do the time she did not do before, she will choose to take a break, Merkel also revealed an important message, during this time, she refused to accept any new political positions, want to leave more time for her family. During Merkel's years in power, she has done her best for the country, dedicating almost all of her time to the country, but she owes her family, because of her work, she does not have much time to spend with her family.
In the past few years, because I was too busy to think about what I wanted to do in the future, what was really interesting to me, and now that I finally have such an opportunity, Merkel needs to think about it. Many are hopeful that Merkel will return to some of Germany's political posts, and they hope that the former chancellor will hold important positions such as president of the European Council or the secretary-general of the United Nations.
Judging from the retirement of leaders of various countries, their lives are still relatively moist and fulfilling, some people will choose to write a biography published after retirement, so that they can get a lot of profits, and some people will choose to speak everywhere, often the benefits of a speech are higher than the salary, each has its own ideas, but one thing is certain, these people who have contributed to the country, after retirement, they live another life, and they are happier after relaxing.
