„Acest lucru nu poate să nu ne atragă atenția”. Kremlinul reacționează la apropierea dorită de AfD

The Kremlin welcomed the far-right AfD's desire for dialogue with Moscow, contrasting it with the conflictual stance of German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Preparations for a meeting to discuss gas deliveries from Russia to Germany are underway. Despite AfD's recent electoral successes, it remains in opposition and lacks influence in federal parliament. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov noted the party's rising popularity and its call for improved relations with Russia, while criticizing Merz's comments. The AfD aims to restore energy ties with Russia and has faced criticism for its stance on Ukraine. The party continues to be blocked from governing at the state level due to a political policy excluding cooperation with it.
