Wahl in Sachsen-Anhalt: Trump gratuliert AfD – Bewegung „im Aufwind“

NRW Minister-President Hendrik Wüst expresses skepticism regarding a possible AfD review, stating that the party must be politically weakened. Hessens Regierungschef Boris Rhein, a CDU politician, emphasized that AfD must be politically marginalized, but acknowledged the difficulty in achieving a rapid resolution. He cautioned against believing in a quick solution, highlighting his past experiences with the NPD's failed prohibition process.

Söder, CSU leader, echoed similar sentiments, stating that while there is a fundamental understanding that AfD should not exist, it is unlikely to be constitutionally feasible. Both leaders warned against the AfD potentially gaining a martyr status, and stressed the need to confront the party's content. Rhein proposed a Union focus on bringing people from behind the "brand wall" to build bridges to the center, emphasizing the importance of listening to their concerns and translating them into concrete policies.
