"I don't think that he should apologise to Jews for anti-semitism, I do not see a good reason for that demand in this case, but I think he should apologise to an individual he has insulted with purpose. If he can't do that he loses as a politician and as a human. But I never had the impression that admitting an error was one of his strengths."

I certainly don't think Ken should apologise to someone who had, apparently, been baiting him for an hour and a half. If he does so it declares him "open season" for any one who thinks it clever to throw insults at him.

I do think, though, that he might make a statement that he did not intend to insult the German nation.

On the other hand, I wonder how many of us would make stupid errors like that if we were placed under the same pressure that Ken was placed under (assuming that reports about the party were true.)
