Orbán cabinet: Thuringia, Saxony election results ‘may be start of a new era in Germany’

The results of provincial elections in the German states of Thuringia and Saxony may be ushering in a new era, the head of the Prime Minister’s Office said in an interview with Hungarian website Mandiner on Monday.

“Hungary is not going to directly inferfere with the interior affairs of any other country but it is monitoring closely the political developments in the strongest European state and has a vested interest in a stable German government. In that regard, we see the start of a new era as support for the ruling parties has plummeted in the two eastern states, with the three [ruling] parties below 14 percent [in Saxony] and barely 10 percent in Thuringia,” Gergely Gulyás said.

Parties branded far-right or far-left in Germany had gained a majority in state legislatures, the head of the Prime Minister’s Office said. The Christian Democratic Alliance (CDU), the largest party in the federal government, “now has to choose between the AfD or the far left,” he said, referring to the Alternative fuer Deutschland party.

The campaign had been marked by a focus on migration and “plummeting public safety due to migration”, Gulyás said. That makes attacks by the European Commission and the European Court of Justice on the “exemplary” Hungarian border protection on its southern border, “threatening for Germany too”, he said.

Berlin and German federal states would also face the threat of further waves of migration should Brussels persist in strong-arming Hungary to eliminate its protection of the external border of the Schengen Area, he said.

“We trust that the election results will move German political forces… to help Hungary’s fight against Brussels for an effective Schengen border protection,” he said.

The German election results also have a relevance in regards of the war in Ukraine, as the forces that came out ahead also opposed weapons deliveries to Ukraine and were calling for an immediate ceasefire and peace, he said.

The two soaring parties, AfD and the Buendnis Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) have the same stance on the matters of “no war, no gender, no migration”, Gulyás said.

Exit polls have predicted that AfD had won 30.5-33.5 percent of the vote in Thuringia and 30-31.5 percent in Saxony, German public television has said. Should final results verify those data, AfD is set to become the governing party in Thuringia.

  1. More extremist day dreaming from Putinist Orban who would love for Europe to submit to the control of his Russian master.

  2. The CDU won the plurality of votes in Saxony and has nothing to do with the fascist wet dreams of Fidesz even though they are not part of the governing coalition of the federal Scholz coalition. The other parties will form coalitions representing the majority in both states and the AfD will remain as an opposition party. Germany remains as a normal democracy no matter what the Fidesz idiots proclaim. In Germany historically the CDU and SPD have alternated as dominant governing parties and the AfD is nowhere near changing that. If voters want to go to the right they vote CDU with a few extremists now going to the AfD.

  3. Thuringia, Saxony is a withering 2 million inhabitants province of old East-Germany.

    Germany has a population of 84 millions.

    Most young peopple move away from this province for better life elsewhere. Growing number of peopple in this province are the simple people who are influenced by propaganda and elderly people who romanticize the “good old days”. That is what we see in the election results.

    No new era. Going back to the old era of discrimination.

  4. The voters of Thuringia and Saxony represent the frustration of all Germans and population of the EU. The AFD party supports democracy but is against Muslim and uncontrolled immigration. This may be the start of a movement in Germany and the rest of the member countries in the EU. It is time that these government paid attention to the wishes of the electorate and not the needs of globalists.

    It is high time that immigration laws are amended to keep out uneducated illegal migrants that government force taxpayers to support.

    This proves that in the long run Hungary always had the right policy.
