Germany's Justice Minister Proposes Stricter Sexual Offense Laws
Germany's Justice Minister Stefanie Hubig (SPD) advocates for extending the statute of limitations for rape from 5 to 20 years and implementing an "Only Yes Means Yes" consent principle. While the SPD and some CDU politicians support the extended limitation period, the CDU expresses skepticism about the practical implementation of the "Only Yes Means Yes" rule due to evidentiary challenges.
