Bundestag President Julia Klockner, of the center-right Christian Democrats (CDU), recently implied that Germany had become the "brothel of Europe" reigniting the national debate about sex work. In a speech read out at an award ceremony on Tuesday, Klockner criticized Germany's current legislation, saying sex workers are not adequately protected. "I am firmly convinced that we must finally ban prostitution and the purchase of sex in this country," the conservative Klockner said.
