German Green premier likens Left Party to AfD over antisemitism, warns against coalition

Baden-Wuerttemberg Premier Cem Ozdemir, a Green, publicly equated the Left Party with the far-right AfD, citing tolerance of antisemitism, and cautioned Greens against forming a Berlin coalition with the Left. This marks a notable intra-party rift ahead of coalition talks, potentially complicating a Red-Red-Green alliance. The claim is an opinion-based political statement, not a verified fact.
