Amthor warns: AfD under Weidel could embarrass Germany!
In a clear appeal to political responsibility, the CDU politician Philipp Amthor recently denounced the discrepancy between the AfD's requirements and its ability. In the NTV early start on January 9th, he said: "Politics must deliver". While the CDU intends to replace the SPD after the elections on February 23 and bring Friedrich Merz to the Chancellery, the AfD with its chairman Alice Weidel is the greatest competition. But Amthor sees no suitable partners for government responsibility in Weidel and the AfD.
in the run-up to a live conversation between Weidel and the US billionaire Elon Musk, Amthor shot sharply against the AfD chair. "It is noteworthy how Alice Weidel came up to people like Elon Musk," remarked Amthor, who spoke of "abstruse attempts to assume". He justified his skepticism with Weidel's previous appearances abroad, which he described as a "obscure". The picture that she could hand over from Germany abroad worries him.
Amthor also criticized Weidel's vulgar language, which he considered to be suitable for "drifted conspiracy media". If you read between the lines, Amthor leaves no doubt that he sees an AfD election victory as dangerous for Germany. "An election victory of the AfD would therefore be the relegation of Germany," said his conviction.
The agenda of the CDU
In addition to the campaign strategy, Amthor also put the political differences to the SPD in the foreground. With regard to the planned "Agenda 2030", which is to be decided on a exam of the Federal Executive Board of the CDU, he announced that the CDU would like to clearly differentiate itself from the SPD. This has long since turned away from the 2010 Agenda, the reform package under the former Chancellor Gerhard Schröder. "The SPD has said goodbye to social romance," said Amthor, which meant a loss of the party's economic profile.With a view to the current situation, he outlined that Germany urgently needed a "positive relationship to work". "At the moment we have a situation in which people talk about the fact that non-work is simplified by such unjust instruments as the citizen allowance," he said. A new model for basic security is needed that promotes the willingness of the citizens and strengthens social justice in the country.
sharp tones in the election campaign
Amthor will not simply immerse yourself in the discussions that Alice Weidel will conduct with Elon Musk. He did not plan to follow the conversation live, but expressed interest in the format. "It is noteworthy how Alice Weidel somehow came up to people like Elon Musk," he said and asked the question in the room whether it was about the interests of Germany. Against the background of the upcoming choice, the discourse around the CDU and the SPD is of crucial importance, while the AfD campaign strategy is more and more in focus.
In this context, the question arises where the political currents will move in Germany and how the voters will choose. Amthor has sent a signal with its clear positioning: The CDU wants to reject not only the SPD, but also the AfD as a serious government alternative.
