US Election - Baerbock advocates for peaceful continuation of the US campaign
Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock emphasized after the attack on US presidential candidate Donald Trump that the campaign in the US should be conducted peacefully. She welcomed the fact that both Biden and Trump had called for this to be a hour of restraint and a hour of departure from violence, the Green politician said on the sidelines of a visit to West Africa in the Senegalese capital Dakar in response to a corresponding reporter question.
"Elections in democracies are decided by ballots, not by violence," added Baerbock. She was deeply shocked by the news of the attack on Trump. "Violence should never be a means of political dispute," said the Federal Foreign Minister and added: "Our hope is that American democracy will overcome this dark hour. And that's best done together." She relied on the fact that both would conduct the dispute democratically in fair elections and in the interest of the people.
Biden had said after the attack on Trump that the political debate in the country had become very heated. "It's time to cool it down," he urged. "We all have a responsibility to do so." Violence is never a solution. Trump had campaigned before the Republican Party convention for overcoming the political division in the country. He had abandoned his planned highly confrontational speech for the party convention, the 78-year-old told the "New York Post." "I'll try to bring the country together," he added and added: "But I don't know if it's possible. The people are very divided."
