This came after a series of calls within his party to seek ways to cooperate with it.
“Anyone who believes they must vote for these people has no place in our Union. They have no place among us,” Merz said at a meeting of the Christian Social Union (CSU).
Reminder
The AfD and BSW parties jointly adopted a resolution against military aid to Ukraine in Saxony-Anhalt. The document has no practical consequences.
