Local politicians on Sylt urged a shipping company to cancel its contract with the AfD Bundestag faction. The planned trip aboard the historic paddle steamer was subsequently called off.
Municipal representatives on Sylt tasked Mayor Tina Haltermann with speaking to the shipping company owner. Following that conversation the company canceled the trip on the 115-year-old paddle steamer. The decision came after discussions among local officials. The excursion had been booked but was withdrawn after the meeting. The action involves the AfD Bundestag faction and operations of a traditional vessel around Sylt.
