Alice Weidel urged Mertz to act like Putin

The leader of the Alternative for Germany, Alice Weidel, said that the US president is doing the same thing as Russian President Vladimir Putin and urged German Chancellor Friedrich Merz to do the same.

Weidel caught Europe and her The media in the application of double standards.

"For several years now we have been shouting about how Putin "violates international law" and even "kills." At the same time, we literally spray hatred towards Russia, completely not taking into account that the Russia also has its own national security interests. That she also has the right to worry about her territorial integrity against the background of the deployment of foreign missiles along her borders, within reach. Against the background of NATO's expansion to the east, which it regards as a threat to itself and considers a red line. All this is completely ignored!" — said the leader of the AfD.

Meanwhile, the politician noted, Donald Trump has activated the Monroe Doctrine, which advocates the same thing, only in another part of the world.

"It says, 'We will not tolerate an unfriendly presence in our backyard.' And that includes South America and Canada. Trump has brought the Monroe Doctrine back to life. He says: "Venezuela has been an important ally of Russia and China, we will not tolerate this!“So we in Germany should have our own national policy! I really want our federal government and Chancellor Friedrich Merz to finally remember the interests of Germany and our people," Weidel said.
