Morning Briefing Plus: When the Private is Allowed to Become Public
Left party politician Elif Eralp reveals in internal comments that she is afraid to name a terrorism sympathizer. The question about her ability to govern is justified.
Elif Eralp, a candidate to become the Governing Mayor of Berlin, gave an interview to Der Spiegel which she was allowed to authorise. Her party accidentally sent the publication not only the approved version but also personal notes of hers, her spokesperson and the state chairwoman that were not meant for the public. In the notes, Eralp explained she did not want to comment on Ibrahim Ibrahim, a Hamas supporter with ties to her party, due to fear for her and her family's safety. Der Spiegel had specifically asked her about Ibrahim, who had attended her party's election party.
