The harsh plan of the party supported by Elon Musk: Closed borders and mass deportations

The far-right Alternative for Germany party (AfD) calls for mass deportations of immigrants in its program for next month’s elections.

A member of the AfD leaders who spoke to his supporters in the town of Riesa in Saxony Alice Weidel said that under the party’s leadership, Germany would see “deportations on a huge scale” and a complete closure of the borders.

They reported on the party’s plan Financial Times and The Telegraphaccording to which the AfD chancellor candidate Weidel used the term “return migration” for the plan. According to The Telegraph, the term refers to the return of immigrants to their country of birth, regardless of whether they are German citizens.

According to FT, the word was invented by an Austrian far-right politician Martin Sellnerwhich defines return migration as the forced return of immigrants who have committed crimes or who refuse to integrate, regardless of citizenship. According to critics, it even amounts to ethnic cleansing.

Weidel received loud applause from party supporters after presenting the plan at a campaign event. According to the FT, some people shouted the slogan “Alice für Deutschland”, which is considered a variation of the banned Nazi-era slogan “Alles für Deutschland” (All for Germany in Finnish).

The AfD has previously caused an uproar with its mass deportation speeches. Last winter, a secret meeting organized by the party was revealed to the public, where it was planned to deport millions of immigrants. After the plan was revealed in Germany, demands began to be made to ban the AfD and stop the funding it receives from the federal government.

AfD is rolling in the polls

Early federal elections will be held in Germany in February, when the chancellor Olaf Scholzin the government fell due to conflicts between the Social Democrats and the right-wing Liberal Party over economic policy. At the moment, AfD is the country’s second largest party in polls with 20 percent support. The number one candidate is the chancellor Friedrich Merzin led by the Christian Democrats (CDU/CSU).

The goals of the AfD, which is especially popular in the former East Germany, have been defined by Germany’s higher administrative court as being against the human dignity of certain groups and against democracy. Alice Weidel, who is part of its management, previously worked in an investment bank Goldman Sachs as an analyst.

Now Weidel and AfD have become closer Donald Trump’s a billionaire who swam into the inner circle Elon Musk’s with. Musk, who declared himself a supporter of the AfD, interviewed Weidel last week on the messaging service X, where the topics of discussion were BBC:n including, among other things Adolf Hitlerenergy policy and the German bureaucracy.

Although the AfD is doing well in the polls and has the support of Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, it has virtually no chance of getting into government.

All other major parties refuse to cooperate with the AfD, and there has been speculation that the future government will be built around the Christian Democrats and the Social Democrats (SPD). Chancellor Scholz’s SPD is expected to lose the election. Currently, the party’s support is 16 percent, and it is the third largest party in Germany.
