Philipp Peyman Engel, editor-in-chief of the Jüdischen Allgemeinen, sharply criticized the CDU in Saxony-Anhalt for their election campaign with Dieter Hallervorden. Engel warns of a dangerous political relativism that is fostered by such actions. He describes the situation as 'undignified and absurd,' emphasizing that the political strategies of the CDU in this context are not only questionable but also potentially harmful to societal stability.
In his statement, Engel stresses the responsibility of political actors to take a clear stance against extremism. He views the collaboration with controversial figures like Hallervorden as a sign of weakness and a departure from the fundamental values that should underpin a democratic society.
