Parties: AfD youth meet in Magdeburg
Right in the middle of the state election campaign, the AfD youth meets in the capital of Saxony-Anhalt to determine its position. Party leader Siegmund is expected as a prominent guest.
The Generation Deutschland (GD), the youth organisation of the AfD, is holding a federal congress in Magdeburg, with 480 participants, guests, and journalists invited. The event aims to determine the organisation's stance on European policy, potentially diverging from the AfD's course. GD leader Jean-Pascal Hohm has distanced himself from the AfD's strict anti-Euro stance, instead advocating for reforming the Euro system's existing flaws.
The organisation also rejects Germany's withdrawal from the Schengen area. The congress comes ahead of the AfD's planned new basic program, which will be adopted next year.
