During a live election debate, German chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz (CDU/CSU) shut down his far-right opponent Alice Weidel (AfD) over her pro-Russian stance:

"No, Frau Weidel, we will not be neutral towards Russia. We will not stand in the middle. We stand with Ukraine. Together with Ukraine, we will defend today's Europe, and we will do everything to ensure that people like you do not determine its policies."

Weidel and the AfD have openly called for restoring strong ties with Russia and bringing Russian gas back to Germany.

  1. Man its so sad that i have to vote for some shit party like the cdu because otherwise afd gets to strong… Because so many are blinded by their non achievable promises

  4. I really do not like the CDU, but this year we need them to counter the AFD. I just want vote for most “pro ukrain” partie. Nothing else matters more for the next 4 years.

  5. Merz is a fucking brick. But I give him Kudos for bashing that POS Weidel into the ground.

  8. Toll, Alice Weidel schafft es, dass ich C. Montgomery Burns Recht geben muss.

  9. I am extremely skeptical that any European leader will help Ukraine more than they already are (like sending weapons with restrictions).

    The Brits are doing a lot, but Russia is such a serious threat, and I think a lot of the tough talk is lip service. Politicians are always a lot of talk, but little action.

    Zelensky laid out what needs to happen: a unified European army. Poland already shot it down, and the rest just ignored him.

    Serious issues require serious solutions. Sending weapons isn’t enough. Sanctions are not enough. A strong military, economic, and espionage alliance needs to happen across Europe to stop Russia. Russia is a bully, and the best thing to stop a bully is to stand up to one.

    Otherwise, Russia wins.

  10. This aint the same alt-right like in the 20th century. Alt-right would take this breach to weaken russia even more but seems like new alt-right are pro-russia. I’m more of old-school right than new one, russia was always the enemy of the alt-right

  13. The German elections are just around the corner. He will promise anything that will win him the election!
    But what he will ultimately deliver is questionable!

    Not long ago, he wanted to join forces with the AfD to adopt a new immigration plan!

  14. Some people don’t like him because he attempted to appear right wing in the face of AfD.

    But we have to be realistic: When it comes to his stance on Putin, he is the only one who sends a clear fuck you to Moscow. And ironically the only tangible fuck you to people like Weidel. He’s right about her and Putin.

    If Merz wins at least we can be sure Putin will sleep less easy.

  15. Don’t like him but regarding defense his party is the only one noticing the current world it seems

  16. In the wake of Trump and other stupid things going on around the world, maybe we can have something good.

  17. Wonder if anyone had German France and Poland joining forces on there 1939 bingo card

  18. Will they advocate for increased European sanctions on Russia? Otherwise it’s just hot air.

  20. guys, Brexit was a success. the Brits are all millionaires now. we Germans should listen to AfD. out of the EU and out of the Euro. what can go wrong?

  21. Important the Europe stand United against our enemy Putin! And Ukraine is part of Europe!

    Fuck Putin

  22. Fucking rights and fuck the AFD they can go suck Russia dick and bend over to Putin

  23. The expression on Frau Weidel’s face is simultaneously pissed, frustrated yet intransigent. In other words, very AfD fascist.

  24. Most of my German relatives will be voting AFD, which I have absolutely no understanding for. They either live in Germany during the last war or learnt at school what the right wing Germans did during that war. In my opinion they do not understand that they will be at war if Putin is allowed to carry on. Please all do NOT rely on Trump he again in my opinion wants chaos as that reduces competition.

  25. can someone post what she said? want to know her words too 🙂

  26. Things are starting to heat up in Europe. It’s taken far too long, but at least it looks to be going in the right direction. UK, Germany, and France, as well as others I’m sure I’ve heard, could all be gearing up.

  27. Kann den Kerl nicht ab, aber dafür gibt es Applaus.

    Ich hoffe übrigens auf Grün Rot Rot, in genau dieser Reihenfolge.

  29. Ich hoffe das wir nach der Wahl die Ukraine mit Taurus zuscheissen 🫡🇩🇪🇺🇦

  30. AFD is just a russian trojan horse. I am sure they would send all muslims away so we have no more knife or car terror attacks but they would open the doors to russia. I rather have a few crazy muslims around than my country invaded by russia.

  32. Best for Ukraine would actually be a CDU/Greens coalition. They have a very similar stance on that. Actually i think Merz and Habeck click on a personal level. But he also has to cater to the strong anti-green sentiment in his party, especially the bavarian faction. So we’ll see…

  34. Put your money where your mouth is pal. You guys have been sucking off putin for cheap gas for a long long time.

    Send ammo and hey maybe send some special forces too.

    All these European countries talk big now about Russia. But they really haven’t done shit. Put some people in there. At least as mechanics, anti aircraft etc etc.

  37. Merz ist kein Scholz Weidel …. 😀
    Da gibt es Kontra und nicht nur blödes Grinsen …. hehehehehehehe

  38. Plonk weapons in Ukraine via NATO, piss off Putin, Russia invades, pulls the EU into war, wait it out a bit and then buy everything that’s left? Whilst selling arms to anyone and everyone that is interested….

    The big removal of naval power by the Americans was kinda a giveaway for what is to come.

  40. Would the German people really vote for a candidate that would support Russia? What percentage are we looking at here?

  42. These Fucking AfD Neo-Nazis should all be deported to Russia… since they love it so much…
