Polish presidential office head Pawel Szefrnaker expressed concern over the far-right AfD party's victory in Germany's Saxony-Anhalt election, calling its program dangerous and unacceptable for Poland. Szefrnaker said the AfD's rise creates a real problem for Warsaw, citing its pro-Russian stance, including proposals to lift sanctions against Russia. He also blamed former Chancellor Angela Merkel's policies for enabling the party's success. He urged Poland to cooperate with German political forces sharing common interests. The election results marked a historic AfD win, while Chancellor Friedrich Merz's CDU lost over half its seats, which Merz called the party's worst defeat in a decade.
