Germany: Thousands of AfD Supporters Demand Merkel’s Resignation in Erfurt


Thousands of protesters gathered in Erfurt, Wednesday, to demonstrate against the EU and Germany's refugee policies. The demonstration was organised by right-wing, Eurosceptic party 'Alternative fur Deutschland' (AfD). The party's spokesperson Bjorn Hocke - who has been accused of hate speech - accused German Chancellor Angela Merkel of causing the failure of Germany and Europe, and demanded that she resign.
