Berlin Governing Mayor Kai Wegner stated that he condemned the attacks on Giffey and other politicians, saying, "Anyone who attacks politicians is attacking our democracy."
Expressing that the attack on Giffey is unacceptable, Wegner said, "We will oppose all forms of violence, hatred, and incitement, and we will protect our democracy."
On May 3 in Germany, SPD Member of the European Parliament (EP) Matthias Ecke was also seriously injured in an attack by a far-right extremist in the city of Dresden, Saxony.
