Campaign Promises Broken by Mr. Merz in Entirety
In a heated budget debate, Alice Weidel, the leader of the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), criticized the German government's spending on multi-billion-euro climate and development policy as a 'green folly.' Weidel also painted a picture of loss of control and growing insecurity under the current government.
During her speech, Weidel accused the government of neglecting key issues such as nuclear power, tax policy, and migration. However, she did not specify what specific promises she believes Chancellor Friedrich Merz has broken on these matters.
Weidel further emphasized the demand for a 'genuine migration turnaround,' which includes closed borders, mandatory deportations, restrictions on family reunification, and cancellation of social benefits for asylum seekers.
In addition to her criticism of the government's policies, Weidel warned of an escalation of the Ukraine war. The context of the debate was not provided, but it is likely related to the budget of the German government.
The response of Chancellor Merz or the government to Weidel's criticism was not reported in the article.
It is worth noting that Weidel has publicly represented the AfD's migration-critical politics, advocating for strict migration limits, including the demand for border closures, deportations for those without residency permits, restrictions on naturalization and social benefits, and an immediate 'migration turnaround' against uncontrolled migration. She criticizes the policies of the Union, SPD, and Greens as 'politically motivated' acceptance of illegal migrants and demands an end to their policies.
