During the protest, he reminded that the dignity of every person is inviolable.
The party of hate is a party that is not based on democracy, Friedman commented on the activities of the AdN.
According to the former head of the Council of the Evangelical Church in Germany EKD, Heinrich BedfordStrm, another joint vote with a party that is partly rightwing extremist should be ruled out once and for all.
We cannot join forces with those who despise human dignity, period, he emphasized.
