Bergisch gladbach Jens Spahn felt how irritable the mood was in the crown pandemic on Saturday: The federal Minister of Health was insulted and spat on by angry crown protesters after an election campaign event in Bergisch Gladbach.
When Spahn (CDU) left the event hall after his speech, angry protesters were waiting there. A YouTube video shows Spahn, surrounded by security forces, approaching the roaring crowd to speak to people. After several unsuccessful attempts, the minister turns and gets into his limousine.
Jens Spahn confirmed the incident in a conversation with our editorial team, but wants to continue dialogue with opponents of the Corona measures: “We have to seek discussion and dialogue with those who are not satisfied with our Corona policy. Because we only stay together as a society if we talk to each other. “Politics does not rent the truth, discussions are part of democracy.” But they only work if both parties are willing to listen. But if there is yelling, spitting and intimidation, unfortunately it just doesn’t work. “
An incident had already occurred on Monday at a Spahn appearance in Wuppertal. Two rioters blocked the minister’s car.
