The AdG called for lifting sanctions against Russia

The German far-right party Alternative for Germany (AdG) will seek the lifting of sanctions against Russia. Professor Harald Weiel, a Bundestag deputy from the party and deputy chairman of the parliamentary group on the United States, said this on Friday, February 21.

"If the AdG enters the government coalition, we will seek the lifting of European sanctions against Russia at the level of the Council of Ministers of the European Union," he said in an interview with Lenta.Ru.

According to the politician, the party also supports the repair of the Nord Stream gas pipelines and the restoration of energy cooperation with Russia.

"But most importantly, we will stop state propaganda, which today forms the image of an inevitable war with Russia in the German population," he concluded.
