China courts Germany's far-right populist AfD
The far-right populist Alternative for Germany party rejects a values-based foreign policy, just as much as it rejects NATO and the US. That approach has attracted the attention of Beijing.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Why else would the Chinese meet with a runner-up party? The article clearly says AfD is hoping for stronger connections with China. This is just another case of fascists working with fascists.
They're already having each others' back, the nazi bitch with CCP connections is straight up defending China:
[AfD co-leader] Weidel herself knows the People's Republic of China very well. She spent six years living there on a German Academic Exchange Service scholarship and completed her doctorate on the Chinese pension system
She has also ridiculed German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock's criticism of the human rights situation in China.
"God help us: Baerbock is on a new mission in #China. She wants to emphasize the 'shared European conviction.' This already fails because it is not only #France which does not share this conviction..."
"Why else would the Chinese meet with a runner-up party?" there are over a billion Chinese, I don't know the motivations all of them have. Where is your proof that anyone with importance in the gov wants to meet with AfD?
She travelled to fucking Beijing to meet with party officials. But yeah I'm sure random ass nobodies invited her.
the article seems purposely vague about who invited them and you are just filling in the gaps with western propaganda
Please explain what by criteria China are fascist
"Blood and soil" nationalism, Han chinese supremacy, xenophobia and some of the most closed borders in the world, repression of minorities and political dissidents, etc. etc. etc. etc.
Blood and soil in China? What on earth are you referencing
Not my job to educate the uneducated.
you sure are giving it your best though
