Meretz Condemns The Alternative Over Ethnic Cleansing
The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party won the Saxony-Anhalt state election with 44% of the votes, a result considered a political earthquake as it approaches taking over the state government for the first time since the Nazi era. In response, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz canceled a scheduled phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump, after the latter praised the victory and described the party as "populist," claiming that Germany is tired of migration policies. This sparked criticism in Berlin and accusations against the AfD of "ethnic cleansing" and pursuing racist objectives, including the deportation of migrants. Merz viewed the election results as a threat to economic and social stability, emphasizing that many of the party’s supporters did not provide it with an outright majority. Meanwhile, the party is now engaged in talks to form a government in the state.
