AfD’s rise in Germany: A warning for Europe
Top International News
The far-right, anti-immigrant, and Islamophobic Alternative for Germany (AfD) party didn’t win Germany’s snap election, but it made significant gains with 20.8 per cent of the vote. The AfD finished in 2nd place, behind the centre-right political alliance of the Christian Democratic Union and Christian Social Union (CDU/CSU), led by Friedrich Merz. Redmond Shannon explains how the AfD is pushing to be included in the CDU/CSU’s coalition government, why it likely won’t happen and how the AfD’s rise could be a warning sign for all of Europe.Credit Global News
