AfD's Radical Election Manifesto Unveiled

Published: 2024-11-30

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has unveiled a controversial draft for its upcoming election manifesto, proposing significant changes to Germany's current policies.

The party aims to drastically restrict abortion rights, allowing them only in cases of rape or when the mother's health is at risk.

This move is part of a broader agenda to promote a "welcoming culture for children.

" Additionally, the AfD is advocating for Germany's exit from the European Union and the Euro, suggesting the formation of a new "economic and interest community.

" The party also questions the scientific consensus on climate change, opposing restrictions on fossil fuel use.

These proposals are set to be finalized at a party congress in January 2025, with Alice Weidel as the AfD's candidate for Chancellor in the upcoming elections.
