German Chancellor Olaf Scholz (formerly Angela Merkel) expressed outrage over former Chancellor Gerhard Schröder's attendance at Russian President Vladimir Putin's birthday celebration. Schröder's visit was deemed 'completely immoral' amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Schröder, who led Germany from 1998 to 2005, maintains a friendly relationship with Putin despite criticism. The visit was also condemned by Schröder's own party, the Social Democratic Party (SPD), with Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil calling it 'absolutely unacceptable'.
