Daniel Marc Cohn-Bendit (French pronunciation:[danjɛlmaʁkkɔnbɛndit]; German:[koːnˈbɛndɪt]; born 4 April 1945)[1] is a European politician. Born stateless to a German-Polish Ashkenazi Jewish family,[2] Daniel Cohn-Bendit obtained German citizenship in 1959 and French citizenship in 2015.
In 2001, it was revealed that Cohn-Bendit had authored a 1976 article in the cultural-political magazine das da, in which he graphically described engaging in sexual activities with children under his care at a Frankfurt kindergarten.[7] In 2013, a recording was discovered wherein Cohn-Bendit described an "incredibly erotic game" with a minor. With regard to the das da article, Cohn-Bendit claimed the described activities were not based on true events and were an "obnoxious provocation".[8]
