"German Far-Right Party Deems EU a Failed Project"

The German far-right party, Alternative for Germany (AfD), has labeled the EU a "failed project" and called for its re-establishment as a 'Confederation of European Nations' in its EU election program. While the party's previous positions called for the dissolution of the EU, a softer approach was adopted to appeal to a broader voter base. The AfD has also strengthened its collaboration with other far-right parties by joining the Identity and Democracy Party (ID). The party's election program has received strong reactions, with the leader of the European People's Party (EPP) calling it a "declaration of war against the Union."

German Far-Right Criticizes EU as European Parliament Elections Approach

The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has declared the European Union a "failed project" in its current form, criticizing its migration and climate policies. However, the party stopped short of demanding Germany's exit from the EU and instead called for its re-founding as a "federation of European nations." The AfD's program for the upcoming European Parliament elections also emphasizes the protection of external borders, strategic autonomy in security policy, and the preservation of "different identities" in Europe. Recent polls show the AfD with significant support, and the party has won elections in eastern Germany. The AfD's list of candidates for the European Parliament election was also finalized at the party convention.
