The link is to an article in German.In a speech before Saxony's state parliament PM Kretschmer said verbatim: "Es gab keinen Mob, keine Hetzjagd und keine Pogrome."/"There was no mob, no manhunt and there were no pogroms."
This means that he's explicitly accusing the MSM and the Merkel administration of lying. Some MSM had retracted the reports about pogroms, mobs and manhunt days ago but the Merkel admin is steadfastly standing by the story (without providing any evidence.)
So either the German Federal Executive under Merkel is a brazen liar or the Saxon State Executive is a brazen liar.
Saxony is governed by the same coalition as Germany and PM Kretschmer is a member of Merkel's party.
In a normal Western democracy this could only end with the resignation of one party, but Germany isn't normal at all.
