Deputy Parliamentary Leader of Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), Beatrix von Storch, has become a central figure in the fight over Germany’s political future. As calls to ban the AfD grow louder and police raids target critics under vague “hate speech” laws, von Storch warns that the country is crossing a line — from democracy to what is effectively an authoritarian regime.
In this interview, she challenges the government’s crackdown on dissent, condemns the media’s silence on Germany and Europe’s ever-increasing problem with migrant crime, and outlines AfD’s plan to restore order: enforce the constitution, repatriate illegal migrants, and protect citizens from rising violence. On foreign policy, she rejects globalist orthodoxy, calling for a sovereign Germany that can cooperate with Russia, maintain independence from Washington and Brussels, and keep NATO focused on defense — not foreign adventures.
Furthermore, von Storch also calls for a pragmatic energy mix of coal, nuclear, and Russian gas to ensure affordable power. She argues that Europe’s future should be a union of nations, not a centralized superstate, and predicts a political realignment that could reshape Brussels entirely.
