Germany’s AfD is no friend of America

MAGA sees the AfD as a natural ally in Europe’s largest and most powerful economy. But figures such as Elon Musk and Mr. Vance may not realize that influencers within the AfD consider the U.S. to be Germany’s ideological and most dangerous adversary. They view MAGA as nothing more than a short-term, highly useful ally. Ms. Weidel recently wrote an op-ed referring to Germans as “slaves” of the U.S., offering a glimpse into the party’s deeply anti-Western ideology.
