German Chancellor Angela Merkel admitted that sometimes the color of her clothes contained a political signal. She stated this in an interview with the newspaper. Süddeutsche Zeitung…
“Sometimes,” she answered the relevant question from journalists.
Merkel also noted that she was not going to give her clothes to museums.
“She is taken to a collection point for used clothing for those in need. Regularly. I don’t give my clothes to the museum, ”the chancellor said.
In addition, she explained why she avoided the phrase “migration crisis”.
“Yes, this is correct. In principle, I avoid this word, because for me a refugee is not a crisis, but a person, ”Merkel said.
According to her, the mistakes made in connection with the influx of illegal migrants “were made long before the fall of 2015 (the peak of the migration crisis – Ed.)”.
Parliamentary elections in the country were held on September 26. After 16 years in power, Chancellor Angela Merkel did not run for elections.
