Koch and Merkel agree: Hohmann facing expulsion

Amazing. Still, Anne Will asks the right question on the Tagesthemen: why didn't the Union react earlier, when it was known how he thinks and what he means?

I found the original article on RP-Online: Politik.

At VeloNews: The Journal of Competitive Cycling there is the original article.
