Even with Krah's absence, the conservative ID parliamentary group refuses to accept AfD.

European Parliament Issues Statement: - Even with Krah's absence, the conservative ID parliamentary group refuses to accept AfD.

The right-wing ID faction in the EU Parliament decides against readmitting the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) despite the exclusion of Maximilian Krah from their parliamentary delegation. According to a report by the magazine "Politico," the decision was made at a meeting in Brussels by the AfD leader Alice Weidel and other ID representatives, including Marine Le Pen from Rassemblement National in France.

Before the European election, the ID faction had excluded the AfD group due to controversial statements made by Krah regarding the Nazi SS. Following their recent election success, the newly elected AfD MPs chose not to include Krah in their delegation on Monday. However, Krah considers this decision a mistake and predicts that the ID will not change its mind. In his opinion, the AfD should not allow themselves to be dictated by a foreign party regarding their choice of association.
