Germany's far-right AfD party has adopted a radical manifesto ahead of key polls in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt, where it could win an outright majority. The manifesto includes plans to clamp down on immigrants and improve relations with Russia, contradicting federal government policies.
The Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party has adopted a radical government programme for Saxony-Anhalt. The programme includes plans to overhaul the state, clamping down on immigrants and supporting large families of German origin. It also aims to improve relations with Russia, contradicting federal government policies. The AfD is riding high in opinion polls in Saxony-Anhalt and could win an outright majority in regional elections in September. This would be the first time a far-right party has held power in a German state since the Second World War. The programme has been criticized by the left-wing Linke Party as a 'nightmare scenario' that would severely curtail fundamental rights.
