Interview: Franziska Giffey: "The ghosts that parts of the Left called up will now not leave them"
Berlin's Senator for Economics warns of connections between Berlin's left-wing scene and the clan environment. The SPD politician rejects a left-wing alliance at federal level.
German politician Franziska Giffey discusses the recent threats against politicians, including Elif Eralp, who expressed fear for her safety due to her party's alleged ties to the Remmo family and other groups involved in organized crime. Giffey, a member of the SPD, notes that her party has taken steps to combat organized crime in Berlin, but criticizes the Left party for their perceived connections to such groups.
The conversation also touches on the potential collapse of coalition talks between the SPD and the Left party due to disagreements over issues like antisemitism and organized crime.
