FDP politician Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann has described the course of former CDU chairwoman Angela Merkel as a 'mortal sin'. According to WELT, she accuses Merkel of having allowed political space to the right of the Union.

There should be no political space to the right of the Union, Strack-Zimmermann said. But that is exactly what former CDU chairwoman Merkel allowed – a course that is ‘quite a mortal sin’, according to the FDP politician.

Strack-Zimmermann also commented on the election of former FDP politician Wolfgang Kubicki. She did not provide details on her statement about Kubicki.
