Summary

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, encouraged by Donald Trump’s return to power, hosted Germany’s far-right AfD leader Alice Weidel, calling the party the “future” of Germany.

He aims to unite Europe’s far-right in the EU Parliament and praised AfD’s anti-immigration stance. Weidel, in turn, lauded Hungary as a “role model.”

AfD, polling at 21% ahead of Germany’s February 23 election, has gained mainstream recognition, with CDU leader Friedrich Merz breaking precedent by seeking AfD support in parliament.

Orban’s Patriots for Europe bloc seeks further far-right influence in Brussels.

      Worse: They try to make them small again by becoming them. Spoiler: It didn’t work. The AfD is now stronger then ever and has other parties draged torwards their inhuman propaganda.
