Soap attack on FDP Leader Christian Lindner in Germany

A young woman threw a foam soap shaped like a cake at Christian Lindner, leader of Germany's Free Democratic Party (FDP) and former finance minister while he was delivering his speech at a campaign event in Greifswald, Germany. Immediately commenting on the incident, Lindner addressed the audience, stating, "I wear these battle scars with pride." The woman is reported to be a local member of the far-left "Linke" party's youth wing.
