Cancelarul Merz a acuzat AfD că vrea „epurare etnică” în Germania, în prima sa confruntare cu partidul de extremă dreapta după alegerile din Saxonia-Anhalt

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz accused the far-right AfD party of promoting ethnic cleansing through its 'remigration' policy during a parliamentary debate. Merz emphasized that this rhetoric divides society and warned that expelling workers would harm essential services in Germany. He acknowledged the need to expel individuals without permanent residency while distinguishing between those contributing to the economy and those who do not. Despite AfD's recent electoral success, Merz asserted that they would not achieve a majority in Germany, labeling them a destructive force in politics.
