After the election: Anti-Semitism debate weighs on formation of government in Berlin
The Left wants to forge a red-green-red coalition in Berlin. This is likely to be difficult, as the issue of antisemitism hangs over the formation of the government.
The SPD leadership has warned the Berlin branch of Die Linke to distance itself from antisemitism and clan crime, prompting the party to defend itself. Die Linke's state manager, Bjoern Tielebein, stated that the party's members work against hate, violence, and racism, and that they share this commitment with the SPD and Greens.
The warning comes as Die Linke seeks to form a coalition with the SPD and Greens after winning the Berlin state election, with SPD leaders emphasizing that they will not tolerate antisemitism in their policy.
