Weidel calls for government participation of the AfD: A turning point in Thuringia?

Berlin/Bonn (ots)

In a current interview, the Federal President of the AfD, Alice Weidel, made its plans and intentions clear after the election victory of her party in Thuringia. Weidel is firmly convinced that your party is willing to play a central role in the future government. "It is very clear that Mr. Höcke received a government mandate as the strongest force," said Weidel on the television station Phoenix. She emphasizes that the will of the people indicate that the AfD should no longer be excluded.

Weidel criticized the position of the CDU, which in her opinion, due to its refusal to cooperate with the AfD, got into a "strategic dead end". According to Weidel, the CDU's decision to argue against working with her party leads to a weaker position in the political spectrum of Germany. "The citizens will remember this very precisely," she warned, referring to the undemocracy of this attitude that they compared to the past of the GDR.

will to vote and new elections

The AfD chairman emphasizes that due to the election results in Thuringia and Saxony, it was time to call out new elections at the national level. In their opinion, the results not only reflected a rejection of the traffic light government in Berlin, but also a clear wish of the voters that their party was represented in the government. "A government without the AfD is a violation of the will of the voters," said Weidel. She sees the possibility of using a blocking minority in Thuringia to block legislative proposals that she considers to be sustainable.

In the interview, Weidel announced that the AfD would continue to actively act against regulations, which in her opinion "will go completely past the future of Germany". This includes specific suggestions that she considers to be irrelevant, such as gender policy. The AfD therefore positions itself not only as a critic, but also as an active resistance in the political landscape of Germany.

The full interview will be available shortly on www.phoenix.de and should provide further discussions and analyzes in the political discourse.
