AfD: Germany's Far-Right Party Criticizes EU as a "Failed Project"

Germany's far-right AfD party criticized the EU as a "failed project" during a conference, citing issues such as climate and immigration. While the party does not support the Euro as a currency, it did not call for Germany to leave the EU or for the bloc to be dissolved entirely. Instead, the AfD aims to establish a new European economic and interest community that preserves member states' sovereignty. Recent surveys show the AfD gaining support among the German public, posing a potential threat to Chancellor Scholz's ruling coalition.
