Bundestag elections 2025: Bundestag is now voting on the Migration Act – SPD reserves the right to Karlsruhe

The publicist and former Vice President of the Central Council of Jews, Michel Friedman, emerges from the CDU. “I’m no longer a member of the CDU,” he said Hessian broadcasting (Mr.). With regard to the vote in the Bundestag on Wednesday, Friedman said: “For the first time, a democratic party, in the case my former party CDU, made it possible that the AfD carried out a majority in parliament with this democratic party. And this rupture of taboo is unexcused. “

The 69-year-old Friedman called the Bundestag vote “a catastrophic turning point for the democracy of the Federal Republic” and an “unexcused power game”. He Merz thinks that he does not want to coalition with the AfD, but the “Box of Pandora” for the normalization of the party is open. “My inner credibility and also my outer man cannot support that,” said Friedman. “I fight, on the other hand, that anti -democrats and human haters get some political influence. That was a fire accelerator for the AfD and its political influence. “

“The naivety of those who want to explain to the CDU that all of this was not wanted, that they didn’t want their voices at all, is so subordinate that you can no longer listen to it,” quotes the Hessischer Rundfunk Friedman. In the ARD “daily topics” he said that the purpose of this means was not. “This distance between Democrats and non -democrats is important because it offers orientation. The AfD is not on the side of democracy, it is outside of democracy. The CDU also knows that. “

Friedman joined the CDU in 1983, and the federal executive board belonged to the federal board between 1994 and 1996. After the donation scandal of the Hessian CDU, he moved to the Saarland State Association in 2000.
