Victorie istorică a Extremei Drepte în Germania: AfD ia Saxonia-Anhalt cu 44,5%, dublu față de partidul cancelarului Friedrich Merz

The far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD) won the Saxony-Anhalt regional elections with 44.5% of the votes, significantly surpassing the Christian Democrats (CDU) at 18.5%. This marks a historic moment as it could be the first time since World War II that a far-right party leads a German state, although they lack an absolute majority. CDU's decline is notable, dropping nearly half of its previous support. Other parties like Die Linke, Greens, and SPD follow with lower percentages. AfD's candidate, Ulrich Siegmund, has been a controversial figure, promoting radical policies including deportations and changes to school curricula. The election results challenge the longstanding political consensus against forming coalitions with the far-right, raising questions about future governance in the region.
