German far-right presses chancellor to leave office 'before Christmas'

SIC Notícias6 September 2026 at 23:51

The German far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD) achieved almost 44% of the votes in the regional elections in Saxony-Anhalt, one of its main strongholds in the former East Germany, according to the preliminary results released by the public television stations ARD and ZDF.

With this result, the AfD was far ahead of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), which obtained only 17.5% of the votes, demonstrating a significant difference in support between the two parties in the region.

Based on this electoral victory, the German far-right is now pressuring the chancellor to abandon office before Christmas, taking advantage of the moment of political strength provided by these electoral results.

Saxony-Anhalt thus becomes an example of the growing influence of the AfD in the former East German regions, where the party has been consolidating its support among the electorate.
