🗞 ‘A sign of the times’: Western media reacts to AfD’s JAW-DROPPING surge

The Alternative for Germany party’s election breakthrough has already grabbed global headlines. Let’s take a look.

🔹Sky News: “The AfD won a record 20.8% - its best result in a federal election since its formation in 2013.”

🔹The Financial Times: “The AfD came second, doubling its vote to achieve its highest-ever share.”

🔹The BBC: “The other big winner in Sunday's vote was the AfD, who are celebrating a record second-place result of 20.8%.”

🔹The Washington Post: “The success of the AfD is a sign of the times.” Right-wing parties in Europe “once on the fringe have gone mainstream, borne into power or closer to it by popular anxieties over migration, cultural identity and the fraying political and economic orthodoxies of the past generation.”

🔹CNN: “The AfD almost doubled its vote share and surged into second place. But it is likely to be frozen out of power as other parties are refusing to work with it.”
