EU's International Diplomacy Strategy

In the latest SWR Aktuell Summer Interview, Markus Frohnmaier, Co-Chairman of the Baden-Württemberg AfD, voiced his criticisms towards the ruling CDU party. The interview, originally transmitted through news aktuell, was broadcast on various SWR channels, including TV, radio, online, and social media.

During the interview, Frohnmaier criticized the CDU's handling of the trade deal with the USA, stating that it has caused difficulties for Baden-Württemberg. He also expressed dissatisfaction with the CDU's stance on defense, suggesting the reinstatement of conscription and a potential halt in support for Ukraine.

Frohnmaier, as the AfD state leader and Minister-President candidate, generally positions himself in opposition to the CDU by criticizing their stances and performance. However, specific points from his SWR Aktuell Summer Interview are not explicitly detailed in the available search results.

The interview with Andreas Stoch (SPD) was conducted by Stephanie Haiber. Photos from the interview can be found on ARD-Foto.de.

In a personal revelation, Frohnmaier discussed a heart attack he had at the age of 27 due to stress.

Looking ahead, the AfD wants to discuss tariffs with the Americans and advocate for the purchase of vehicles from Baden-Württemberg by public authorities. Frohnmaier also expressed a desire to fly to Russia to discuss Nord Stream.
