I would like to realize these in the next few years."
Chrupalla comes from Saxony. With reference to party circles, the newspaper "Bild" had written about considerations that he might run for Minister President if the AfD won the elections in Saxony in September.
Chrupalla explained: "Jörg Urban is successfully leading the Alternative in Saxony as state spokesperson. We work together well and in a spirit of trust." Chrupalla emphasized that he himself had been directly elected to the Bundestag twice. "That's my place, that's what I've been working towards."
