German AfD party: 'We blame Merkel for the attack'

World at One

Available for over a year

The right-wing German party Alternatives Fuer Deutschland has blamed Chancellor Merkel for the attack on the Berlin market which has left 12 people dead, and 48 injured. They have criticised Angela Merkel's decision to allow around a million migrants into Germany over the past two years. Beatrix von Storch, a German MEP, and vice chair for the AfD Party, tells The World at One that "it is not possible to let in so many refugees" and "as far we know the terrorist was one of them".
