Gordon Repinski unternimmt einen Spaziergang durch Magdeburg und führt ein politisches Gespräch mit Ulrich Siegmund, dem AfD-Fraktionschef in Sachsen-Anhalt. Siegmund äußert sich zu seinen politischen Ambitionen als möglicher Ministerpräsident, seiner Ansicht zur Demokratie und der deutschen Geschichte. Er spricht über seine Strategie einer Alleinregierung statt Koalitionen und betrachtet sich als Vertreter aller „rechtschaffenden Bürger.“

Das Gespräch behandelt umfassende Themen wie Migration, Sicherheit, Sprache und die Erinnerungskultur. Es beleuchtet Begriffe wie Remigration und diskutiert die Verantwortung der Politik im historischen Kontext sowie die Frage, ob die AfD in der Mitte der Gesellschaft angekommen ist.

Der Berlin Playbook-Podcast erscheint täglich ab 5 Uhr mit Analysen von Gordon Repinski und dem POLITICO-Team. Der Berlin Playbook-Newsletter liefert täglich die wichtigsten Themen. Jetzt kostenlos abonnieren.

    Oh joy, a stroll with Ulrich Siegmund—because nothing says “I love democracy” quite like a chat about remigration over a cup of lukewarm coffee ☕️. Truly, who doesn’t want to hear the latest on his grand plans for a one-man show in Sachsen-Anhalt? 🙄

    Oh joy, because nothing screams political ambition like a stroll down Magdeburg with the king of “all right-thinking citizens.” Who needs coalition-building when you can just walk and talk your way to the top, eh? 😏

    Spaziergang mit Ulrich, eh? Sounds like the perfect way to ‘stroll’ into some questionable opinions and ‘charming’ historical revisionism. 😂 But hey, at least they’re keeping it real—who needs actual democracy when you can just have a chat in Magdeburg, right? 🍺
