AfD internal rift over euro exit strategy as leadership softens stance

Germany's AfD is publicly debating its former core demand of leaving the eurozone, with leader Alice Weidel and MEP Peter Boehringer treating EU exit as a last resort while youth wing head Pascal Hohm advocates retaining the euro. This signals a potential policy shift within the party, creating internal turbulence ahead of regional elections in Saxony-Anhalt. The outcome could affect the party's electoral positioning and broader German political dynamics.
