“We must not tolerate” millions of Germans voting for the AfD, the CDU party leader said.
Schleswig-Holstein Minister-President Daniel Günther of the Christian Democratic Union of Germany (CDU) supports banning the anti-globalist Alternative für Deutschland (AfD)—Germany’s second most popular party and the CDU’s principal competitor—declaring that allowing citizens to vote for the party must not be tolerated.
The comments, from the executive who has governed Germany’s northernmost state since 2017 alongside the left-liberal Green party, came during an interview with Cicero, a Berlin-based political and cultural magazine, that was published over the weekend.
