Olaf Scholz took his oath of office at the Bundestag on Wednesday as he became Germany’s new chancellor.
He replaced Angela Merkel, who is standing down after 16 years at the helm.
Scholz, who omitted the optional phrase “so help me God” during the swearing-in ceremony, smiled as he was formally appointed by President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Merkel wished Scholz luck at a handover ceremony at the chancellery.
