Merz acuză AfD de „epurare etnică” și anulează convorbirea cu Trump, după ce Președintele SUA a lăudat victoria extremei drepte din Saxonia-Anhalt

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz criticized the AfD's call for "remigration," equating it to ethnic cleansing. He canceled a scheduled call with Donald Trump after the latter praised AfD's electoral success. Merz emphasized the economic necessity of immigrants in various sectors and accused AfD of siding with Russia. The AfD achieved nearly 44% in Saxony-Anhalt, marking a significant shift in German politics, while the CDU's support plummeted. Merz's distancing from Trump may appeal to German voters, as the AfD's rise challenges traditional party dynamics.
