Steeven Bretz

Steeven Bretz is the CDU Fraktionsvorsitzende (parliamentary group leader) in Brandenburg, Germany. He is currently newsworthy due to a controversy surrounding Frank Bommert, a CDU politician who shared images of Wehrmacht vehicles on Instagram. Bretz has publicly distanced himself and the CDU faction from Bommert's actions and the content he shared. The CDU faction has stated that the matter will be discussed and addressed internally, and that Bretz will be speaking with Bommert personally. Bretz's response is significant as it reflects the CDU's attempt to manage the fallout from Bommert's controversial post and to reaffirm its stance against any association with Wehrmacht imagery.
