Saxony-Anhalt’s Prime Minister talks about the reasons for the AfD’s success, the consequences of hectic government policies – and explains why climate protection is not the most important issue in the east.
Reiner Haseloff stands in the CDU for a successful course of demarcation to the right. He even fired his interior minister in 2020, when he was thinking aloud about a possible toleration of the AfD. In the last state election in 2021, the CDU performed almost twice as well as the AfD. When dealing with the right-wing populists, Haseloff advises rational composure, but this energetically as usual.
