in.gr (Greek)

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk called those celebrating the AfD's election victory in Germany "idiots and traitors," adding that many are concentrated in two Polish opposition parties. Tusk's remarks came after the far-right party's win in Saxony-Anhalt. Tusk specifically named the Confederation (Konfederacja) and the Law and Justice party (PiS) as hosting these celebrants. French Minister Benjamin Haddad called it a serious moment for Europe, stressing the need to defend democratic values while listening to citizens' concerns. Austrian far-right leader Herbert Kickl framed the result as political change, comparing it to the fall of the Berlin Wall. Czech parliament speaker Tomio Okamura congratulated the AfD, hoping it joins a coalition government in Saxony-Anhalt.
