Protesters rally in Berlin against public healthcare reform

Berlin, Apr 29 (EFE/EPA).- German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Wednesday announced a “historic” reform of the country’s public healthcare system, including cuts and measures worth at least 15 billion euros aimed at preventing an increase in contributions.

After weeks of negotiations within the coalition government, Merz presented the agreement alongside Health Minister Nina Warken in Berlin, scaling back from an initial plan that sought savings of up to 19 billion euros. (Camera: CLEMENS BILAN).
