iefimerida.gr (Greek)

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said only "idiots and traitors" in Poland celebrate the far-right AfD's election win in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, specifically citing two opposition parties. Tusk criticized the Konfederacja party and the Law and Justice party (PiS) for their reactions. French Minister Benjamin Haddad called it a "serious moment for Europe," urging defense of democratic values while acknowledging citizens' anger and fears. Austrian far-right leader Herbert Kickl compared the result to the fall of the Berlin Wall, while Czech parliamentary president Tomio Okamura congratulated the AfD and hoped it joins a coalition government.
