Federal Constitutional Court: Brosius-Gersdorf defends itself: I’m not ultra-link

After the failed election of three constitutional judges in the Bundestag, the constitutional lawyer Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf proposed by the SPD rejected allegations. “The name of my person as” ultralinks “or” left -wing radical “is defamatory and unrealistic,” says a statement by the lawyer who published her through a law firm.

The German press agency has the letter. At first ZDF and Deutschlandfunk had reported about it. In it, she accuses the media that her reporting was “incorrect and incomplete, unreasonable and non -transparent”. “It was not subject -oriented, but directed by the goal of preventing the choice.” The letter continues: “Criticism also have to put up with individual state officials.”

Brosius-Gersdorf continues: “If my scientific positions are politically assigned to my scientific positions, a picture of the democratic middle shows.” Unilateral attributions such as “Ultralinks” and “Left -wing radical” lack the factual base. “They are based on a selective and incomplete selection of individual topics and theses, to which individual sentences are torn out of context in order to draw a distortion.”

Incorrect and disparaging, for example, the claim that it had spoken out for legalization and impunity of the abortion until birth. Her positions on a headscarf ban and parity models for the election of the Bundestag have also been reproduced incorrectly, emphasizes Brosius-Gersdorf.

On Friday, the election of two new judges and a judge for Karlsruhe was discontinued by the agenda of the Bundestag. The pressure against the lawyer Brosius-Gersdorf proposed by the SPD had become too great in the Union. The group management was no longer able to guarantee the support agreed with the coalition partner.
