Der Standard alleges “strange contacts” to organised crime; in Welt, a Green says talks with Berlin’s winning Linke are possible within “red lines”

The reports describe Die Linke as the winner in Berlin, and the parties it would need to govern are split on whether to talk to it at all. Six reports discuss the party. None of them quotes it.

Europe Germany

The charge. Der Standard puts it in its own headline: “antisemitism and closeness to crime”. Its second piece speaks of “strange contacts with organised crime” and gives no source. Welt calls it a “clan debate”. No report we hold names the people involved or shows evidence.

The split on talks.

Outlet Who speaks Position on talks with Die Linke
Der Standard federal SPD, prominent Greens against, unless it distances itself enough from antisemitism
Frankfurter Allgemeine Michael Müller and Walter Momper, former SPD mayors signed a party resolution against a coalition
Welt Sergey Lagodinsky, Green MEP possible, within “red lines”
Welt Andreas Rosenfelder, its chief commentator the CDU is right to stay out of talks for now
Welt Bob Hanning, handball official asks whether Elif Eralp “may govern at all”

The missing voice. All 6 reports discuss Die Linke and none quotes it. The only Linke politician named, Elif Eralp, appears as the target of a critic.

What is not settled. - Who the crime allegations concern, and on what evidence. - Whether the national SPD warned its party, as Der Standard says. No other report we hold carries it. - Whether the SPD resolution the Frankfurter Allgemeine reports has passed, or how many people signed it. - What Eralp did about the Olympic bid. Welt says she “cleared it away” and we hold no detail. - What Die Linke says in reply.

What this is about. Who will govern Berlin after an election the reports describe Die Linke as winning, and whether any party will negotiate with it.

How it got here. Die Linke descends from the party that ruled East Germany. The SED renamed itself the PDS in 1990, and in 2007 the PDS merged with a western left-wing group to form Die Linke. Berlin is a city and a federal state at once. It is where the party has governed longest: with the SPD from 2002 to 2011, then with the SPD and the Greens from 2016 to 2023, under SPD mayors including Michael Müller. After the 2023 repeat election the CDU’s Kai Wegner became mayor, with the SPD as junior partner.

Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October 2023 and the war in Gaza followed. Since then Die Linke has been divided over Israel and over antisemitism. In 2024 several prominent Berlin members left the party over it. In Germany the question carries extra weight: governments since Angela Merkel's have called Israel’s security part of Germany's reason of state.

The actors. The CDU leads the federal government under Chancellor Friedrich Merz, in coalition with the SPD. A CDU party-congress decision of 2018 rules out working with Die Linke. The SPD and the Greens have governed with Die Linke before, in Berlin and in other states, and must now decide whether to do so again. Walter Momper was Berlin’s SPD mayor when the Wall fell in 1989.

What is at stake. If the SPD and the Greens refuse, the party that won may not govern. If they agree, they take the antisemitism dispute into government, along with crime allegations that the reports we hold do not back up.

Where it stands. Welt reports that the CDU is not available for coalition talks for now. The Frankfurter Allgemeine reports that two former SPD mayors signed a resolution against a coalition. One Green says talks are possible. Die Linke’s own answer is in none of the reports we hold.

What is being argued about

  • Whether the SPD and the Greens will negotiate with Die Linke in Berlin
  • Antisemitism in Die Linke and the conditions set for talks
  • Unsourced allegations of contacts with organised crime
  • The CDU staying out of coalition talks

The bias in this coverageBias

The party is discussed, not heard

Six reports discuss Die Linke. None quotes anyone from the party answering the antisemitism or clan charges. One names a Linke politician, and only as the target of a critic.

6 reports discussing Die Linke 0 reports quoting Die Linke 5 reports leading with critics or conditions

Charges stated flat

Two reports put the antisemitism or crime charge in their own voice, in a headline or standfirst. The others give the charge to a named person.

2 reports stating a charge in their own voice 2 reports attributing the charge to a named person or party
Scored without the mastheads. Where the two passes differ, both are kept.
