Palmer's controversial AfD proposal at Lanz: Excess in Thuringia!

Tübingen, Deutschland - After the state elections in Thuringia, government formation is in the air. In the last edition of "Markus Lanz", Boris Palmer achieved immediate outrage with his proposal to consider working between the CDU and AfD. The SPD is disputed internally about the planned security package, which is considered potentially racist by several MPs. Michael Roth from the SPD confessed not to be satisfied with many aspects of the package, but expressed the need for an agreement in order not to endanger the coalition.

Palmer, who criticized the SPD for its indecisiveness, threw in: if those responsible had addressed difficult topics earlier, the AfD's intention would not have become so strong. The discussion was nervous when Roth described the tightening of asylum policy as essential. Several experts, including journalist Eva Quadbeck, warned Palmer of working with the AfD and referred to the dangers of such tactics, while Palmer abbots the argument of his opponents as unjustified. The turmoil during the talk show illustrated the tensions in German politics about migration and the role of the AfD.
