SPD leader Klingbeil talks about pensions on ARD – and gets a laugh. SPD Labor Minister Hubertus Heil recently promised that the pension level could remain stable at 48 percent.

According to the current pension atlas from the German Pension Insurance, the average pension in Germany is currently around 1,550 euros gross. “That means we don’t have to worry?” asked presenter Caren Miosga in disbelief, met with loud laughter from the other talk guests.
