Constantin Schreiber follows his heart – the situation in the morning
“Tagesschau” spokesman Constantin Schreiber says goodbye, Trump has mercy with the EU and what else is important today.
Good morning, dear readers,
It was known for a long time that Constantin Schreiber The “Tagesschau” of the ARD would no longer moderate forever. Yesterday the last news program was broadcast with him. He has been one of the most famous ARD faces since 2017. However, his farewell was quite cool.
Cool in front of the camera, warmly in the off
Schreiber thanked the audience and said goodbye with a Chinese saying: “Wherever you go, go with your heart.” That’s it. No flowers, no hugs, no personal words to colleagues.
It was different with his predecessors: after 35 years as a “Tagesschau” spokesman with a friendly speech among colleagues and audiences. Judith Rakers became a news spokeswoman in January 2024 after 19 years. For the outgoing journalist Sabine Rau had “Tagesschau”- in the current program. And in ZDF V by handshake at the “Today Journal”. For this purpose, a banner was shown with congratulations on the outgoing moderator.
But Schreiber was still warmly adopted – behind the camera ,. There the now ex- “Tagesschau” spokesman was received with applause. And there was one with colleague Susanne Daubner on top. Nothing should stand in the way of his call of the heart.
Mercy on a time limit
Donald Trump plays again with the customs hammer and no country can be sure when it will be caught. The US President again demonstrates this unpredictability at the EU. In April he announced tariffs for the whole world. The United States should raise 50 percent on EU imports. A little later, Trump then decided on ten percent for 90 days for the base customs for 90 days before he picked up the Zollhammer again last Friday: 50 percent tariffs on EU goods from June 1st.
Ursula von der Leyen grabbed the listener. The wire into the White House obviously still works, Trump first drops the 50 percent customs hammer. That is why the EU Commission President had asked. The grace period expires on July 9th. Until then, the European Union has time to negotiate with the United States a satisfactory agreement. If the failure and the trade dispute escalate, the EU has prepared against tariffs.
A sweater with consequences
Clothes do people. Nobody experiences it as much as Jette Nietzard. The boss of the green youth had posted a photo of herself on Instagram. This was shown by the politician in the sweater. Sushing at first glance. What can you go wrong with a Hoddie? I tell you some things. The problem was not the garment itself, but the imprint. “ACAB” was read on the acronym for “all cops are bastards”.
Evil tongues would now say: With the garment, Ms. Nietzard has revealed itself as a left-wing, police-hate person. This, says Nietzard my colleague in the capital office, was never intended. She hate no police officers. But the system behind it.
Do you have to express this attitude with your sweater on Instagram? Certainly not as a politician. Nietzard also sees that. The case is once again a lesson for everyone who holds public office: consider well how you place your messages.
What still happens today
- Friedrich Merz meets with the heads of government of the north in Turku. Sounds like an announcement from Game of Thrones – however, the meeting in the Finnish coastal metropolis should not be as intrigue or bloodthirsty. At the dinner, the Chancellor will talk about security, defense and business with Finland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Iceland as well as representatives from Greenland.
- King Charles III. ruggedWith wife Camilla to Canada. One thing is certain: a normal royal state visit will not. Why read here.
- In the Diesel emissions scandal should be the judgment against four former VW employees. They are accused of fraud. They face several years behind bars. The negotiations took almost four years.
A good start to this Monday and the new week wishes you
