During a campaign event in Greifswald, Christian Lindner, leader of the German Free Democratic Party (FDP), was targeted with shaving foam by a member of the Left Party. The incident occurred while he was addressing the audience. Lindner responded humorously, wiping the foam from his face and joking about it being soap rather than whipped cream. Chancellor Olaf Scholz condemned the attack, emphasizing the unacceptability of violence against politicians and demonstrating solidarity among democrats. This incident highlights ongoing concerns about political attacks in Germany, with rising statistics over the years.
