The Alternative for Germany (AfD) is a German far-right party that has gained visibility mainly through its rigid positions on immigration, seeking to close the country's borders and facilitate deportations. The party also presents itself as a defender of traditional family values.
This stance contrasts with the leadership of Alice Weidel, co-chair of the party, who is a lesbian woman married to a foreigner. This apparent contradiction has been pointed out as one of the party's paradoxes, combining anti-immigration rhetoric with a leader who lives in a relationship with someone of foreign origin.
The AfD has been strengthening its presence in the German political landscape, positioning itself as a force that aims to significantly restrict immigration and implement stricter policies for border control and expulsion of migrants.
