The German far-right AfD aims to dismantle the EU in its current form and transform it into a confederation of nation-states with limited power, the party stated during its EU election kick-off on Saturday (27 April).

    Is this the same AfD that got involved in several Russian spy scandals? It’s an interesting coincidence their agenda and Russian interests always seem to line up.

      It’s the same AfD that has the same talking points as the Russia linked National Front in France. What a weird coincidence, right?

      No, it’s the same AfD that got involved in several Russian and Chinese spy scandals.

      Yes, that’s the same AfD. Also the same AfD that wants the forced deportation of millions of citizens from Germany.

      There is also evidence that the AfD had Russian officials draft a strategy paper for them, which they used as a basis for writing their party program. They have a real kink for Daddy Putin.

      It’s the same AfD that is so far right that Marine Le Pen finds them to be too extreme
