Report: Obama Will Speak At Victory Column, Not Brandenburg Gate

By Paddy

Seems like a good compromise to me- one stirring foreign landmark's good as another. Plus, it keeps away the frothing wingers. (for a while) Via TPM, as yet unconfirmed.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama will give a speech at the Victory Column in central Berlin, avoiding the Brandenburg Gate after a political spat broke out over plans to speak there, Berliner Zeitung said.

A stage will be set up at the column, a 19th-century fluted structure that lies at the opposite end of a tree-lined boulevard from the Brandenburg Gate, the newspaper said. The campaign will announce the plans for July 24 today, it said.

An appearance at the Victory Column, capped by its trademark gilded angel, will still give the Illinois senator the Brandenburg Gate as a backdrop in the distance.

UPDATE- Taegan has it confirmed now.
