SPD Leader Slams Left Party’s Berlin Event as “Intolerable” Amid Coalition Talks

SPD top candidate Steffen Krach sharply criticized the presence of a clan leader and a representative from the “United Palestinian National Committee” at a Die Linke party in Berlin-Neukölln. According to Krach speaking to the “Rheinische Post,” those involved should know in Neukölln whom they are celebrating with, calling the incident “simply intolerable.” Krach concluded by questioning how Die Linke would handle the fallout. While photos from the party are likely to complicate Die Linke’s anticipated exploratory talks with the SPD and the Greens, many signs still point toward coalition negotiations for a red-red-green alliance. However, a coalition led by the CDU in Kenya remains mathematically possible as an alternative.
