“”On Sunday evening, Merkel said she hadn’t covered up anything about her past. “I can only rely on my memory,” she said at a public screening of her favorite movie, a popular love film made in East Germany, on Sunday night. “If something turns out to be different, I can live with that.”
Her spokesman, Steffen Seibert, denied on Monday that the chancellor had ever covered up political aspects of her life in East Germany. “The chancellor has been making statements about her life in the GDR for years in books and interviews,” he said. “She always answered questions openly and based on her honest memories.””
Sounds familiar...
So basically she can’t be wrong. If she doesn’t remember something it was just her bad memory. Kind of like everybody testifying at the coup.
