Gatherings and social events. - Von der Leyen advocates protecting fundamental principles against radical elements.
In Europe, businesses require a level playing field and less red tape. Nature should be protected for future generations and, most importantly, illegal immigration must be halted. Recently, the present EU Commission President spoke to hundreds of individuals at the Nikolaikirche in Messestadt, stating, "We determine who enters Europe, not smugglers and traffickers."
At the previous event, the CDU Federal Chairman, Friedrich Merz, reiterated that the EU is under threat from both far-left and far-right extremists. "They aim to establish a new state and annul the EU." To defend it, there must be a struggle - priorities need to be established. For this, Germany must remain an industrialized country. The hardworking populace should be relieved.
A small group of people disrupted the gathering with rudeness. Merz responded, "Millions admire the European Union, and we shall safeguard this peace and prosperity." He also asserted that they would not be influenced by a few hecklers. "You are simply a tiny group in Germany, and you will remain so." Votes will be cast for the European elections in Germany on June 9.
