Former Thuringian Prime Minister Thomas Kemmerich participated in a protest against restrictions to curb the crown pandemic and was therefore widely criticized. The FDP politician confirmed his presence on Twitter on Saturday night. Kemmerich wrote that he had attended an event in Gera for “proportionality and a crown departure sparingly and sparingly.” In several German cities, thousands protested against the measures in Saturday’s pandemic.
Thuringian Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow especially criticized the alleged breach of crown rules at the event: “Keep your distance or mouth / nose protection / coverage? – Nothing! Exemplary function? – Nothing! “He wrote in the short message service for a report with a photo of Kemmerich
Environment Minister Anja Siegesmund (Greens) criticized the fact that the FDP politician praised himself for running “against the responsibility of all our health” along with the AfD and conspiracy theorists. According to a report by “Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland”, AfD politicians also participated in the protest.
Criticism of Kemmerich also came from the party itself. “Being liberal does not mean being against something on principle, especially when it protects people,” MP Bundestag member Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann wrote on Twitter. Ria Schröder, the president of Young Liberals, said, without naming Kemmerich by name, “who deliberately ignores hygiene measures and aligns with right-wing extremists is not in the middle, but puts us all in danger and undermines the constructive work “of the FDP.
This is not the first time that the FDP politician has been criticized for his behavior. Kemmerich was elected prime minister in Thuringia on February 5 with the votes of AfD, CDU and FDP, causing outrage and protests across the country. He resigned three days after his election.
