      A senior figure from the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has called for Poland to pay his country €1.3 billion (5.5 billion zloty) as reparations for its “complicity” in the sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines.

      His demand – the latest in a recent series of anti-Polish remarks by AfD figures – has been met with anger in Poland, with one government minister calling it “outrageous”.

      On Wednesday, Kay Gottschalk, one of the founders of AfD and currently its parliamentary spokesman for financial affairs, responded on social media platform X to a post by Dominik Tarczyński, an MEP for Poland’s national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party.

      Gottschalk then wrote: “€1.3 billion should suffice as a reparations payment for the complicity in the Nord Stream bombing. My first official act as finance minister will be to assert these claims against Poland. He who laughs last, laughs best.”

      AfD has no immediate prospect of coming to power, with elections not due until 2029. But it is the largest opposition party in the Bundestag, Germany’s parliament, and, according to polling averages, is also currently the most popular party among voters, with support of around 26%.

      They’re just asking our politicians to once again bring out war reparations, like an Ace out of their sleeves

      This is why far right movement is a meme and full of idiots. These groups are too narcissistic to cooperate.

      Sure. We’ll pay the 1.3 billion after you pay us another 10 billion in reparations for WW2.

      And an addition 5 billion because fuck you thats why.

      >Dziennikarz zadał mu pytanie przesłane od słuchacza o to, dlaczego europosłowie z Nowej Nadziei dołączyli do grupy Europy Suwerennych Narodów z AfD. – AfD jest najbardziej propolską partią niemiecką – oświadczył

      >Następnie stwierdził, że niemiecka partia jest “jednym, wielkim sojusznikiem Polski w Brukseli i polskich interesów w Brukseli”

      That’s the most pro-polish party Mentzen was talking about?

      Either way pull up WW2 reparations as a counter

      AFD is corrupt and sells information to Russia. They would push narratives like this one to benefit economically ( on a personal level btw)

      If anything, we should pay Poland as a thank you for helping us get rid off Nordstream and a further sum as an apology for trying to push through Nordstream, despite years of warning from Poland or other allies.

      Reminder to everyone here
      AfD aka the alternative for Germany party is alt-right, pro Russia and constantly on the edge of being banned here
      No one with half a working braincell likes these wannabe fascists

      Guys remember. Far right parties are used and supported by „unfriendly“ governments to weaken EU. Don’t fall for this shit.
