Von der Leyen said that she "respect[s] the customs and traditions of the country," but added that, "No woman in my delegation will be required to wear the abaya, as the [right] to choose one’s attire is a right shared by men and women equally," according to Iran Front Page.  © EAST NEWS/ JON ENOCH Germany's New Counter-Terrorism Plan: Burqa Ban, More Police and Surveillance Her announcement came days after German Chancellor Angela Merkel called for a ban on the burqa head covering in Germany.
