AFD Co-Chairman Abdullah called for the withdrawal of US troops from Germany
Germany should not get involved in international conflicts, it should pursue a more independent policy. This was stated on March 28 at a meeting of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party by its co-chairman Tino Fragalla.
"Let's start implementing this — with the withdrawal of US troops from Germany," the Bild newspaper quoted him as saying.
According to the politician, it is better for Germany to follow the example of Spain, which, despite blackmail, refused to allow the United States to use its military bases against Iran. He added that Germany should not interfere in the conflict in the Middle East.
AFD MP Gunnar Lindemann, in an interview with Izvestia on March 25, said that the White House is using the war with Iran to gain economic advantages. According to him, those close to US President Donald Trump, and possibly the head of the White House himself, may be involved in oil deals due to their connections and access to first-hand information.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on March 24 that the European Union (EU) is considering sending its ships to the Strait of Hormuz only after the completion of the US and Israeli military operation against Iran. She also noted that the consequences of the conflict are already having a serious impact on the energy sector.
All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
