Europe or the abyss
Climate Change . Controversy . Germany . PoliticsThe European Union has ceased to be a symbol of unity and has become a bureaucratic machine that erodes the sovereignty of its nations. Proposals such as “Dexit” are a legitimate response to a system that imposes controls that are foreign to ordinary citizens. Germany faces a dilemma: remain under the yoke of Brussels or regain its freedom.
The European Union, which was born to embrace peace and prosperity, has been transformed into a bureaucratic project that centralizes power, eliminates cultural and economic diversity and subjects member states to unilateral policies. The AfD’s proposal for a “Dexit“, the return to the German mark and the withdrawal of Germany from the EU is not an isolated folly, but a legitimate response to the failure of this system. This idea, unfairly accused of being “pro-Russian”, does not seek to align itself with Moscow, but to defend German sovereignty. Stigmatizing any sovereignist position as fascist, as left-wing populisms do, is a manipulation that distorts the debate. In reality, no fascist party has any relevance in Europe, the latest scandal being the inappropriate and inaccurate accusation of Călin Georgescu as a fascist in the Romanian elections (he is just another populist), and neither are the politicians of the AfD. This party proposes alternatives that can revitalize a German economy hit by layoffs and factory closures. The inability of Chancellor Olaf Scholz and his “Traffic Light” coalition to lead effectively has aggravated Germany’s economic crisis.
The AfD’s proposals are in this context a necessary counterweight with a focus on economic and energy autonomy to Brussels policies that see in the digital euro or Agenda 2030 things that, far from modernising Europe, imposed unprecedented financial and social control. The digital euro threatens economic privacy, while the Green Deal, with its focus on electric cars and decarbonisation, punishes farmers and ordinary citizens, ignoring the practical needs of millions of Europeans. In addition, the EU’s migration policy, which promotes mandatory immigration quotas, erodes European cultural identity.
Every nation has the right to decide who enters its territory, and the imposition of these policies is an attack on sovereignty. Ursula von der Leyen and the European Commission act as executors of globalist interests, prioritising an ideological agenda over the needs of citizens. Both the European People’s Party and the European Socialist Party have supported this centralist drift, undermining the democratic and cultural values that once defined Europe. The EU, in its current state, neither respects diversity nor encourages cooperation; it imposes a uniformity that weakens nations.
Without radical change, proposals such as “Dexit” will not only be understandable, but inevitable. Germany, with its tradition of prudence, can lead a rethinking of what it means to be European: a community of free nations, not an oppressive machine. Either the original purpose of the EU is restored, or its dissolution must be accepted as the only way to save Europe.
