The day: Söder distributes against AfD

On the Day of German Unity, Markus Söder distributes against the AfD. "One of the greatest dangers is making the democratic culture worse," said Bavaria's CSU Prime Minister at the Union's Germany Festival. Due to the corona, this cannot take place in Mödlareuth in Upper Franconia this year, but only online. At first, parts of the Left Party had spoken badly about reunification in order to save their supposed legacy, said Söder. It is now the AfD. "She tries to badmouth everything. And in doing so she builds on resentments that are extremely dangerous."

The CSU boss spoke of racism and anti-Semitism. The AfD is questioning the basic democratic values. "We can not permit that." Söder continues: "We need people who want to build the future," not those who just scolded or spread hatred. Of course, mistakes have been made in the past 30 years, "not everything was perfect," Söder had previously said at a meeting with the Saxon Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer (CDU) on the former inner-German border near Weischlitz. Of the West German states, Bavaria had the longest border with the GDR at 422 kilometers.
