8:01 am
come back tour, leaving many frustrated fans waiting hours online to get those hard to get tickets . the marietta evans, dean, it's good to have you with us here in germany. voting has begun and regional elections at could see a fall right party when the most seats since world war 2. the a f. d, or alternative for germany is projected to make big gains and the eastern states of saxony entering june. the parties regional branches, there are classified as of right wing extremist, to bind germany's intelligence agency, the mainstream conservatives, and a new far left populous party could also see a strong showing. chancellor. all of sholtes as governing social democrats were pulling poorly ahead of the vote. to all the rise of the far right is causing
8:02 am
alarm in the east and other parts of germany, inter inches and 3000 and t a d and n t far right protesters to him to the streets of the regional capital air for it on saturday, pronouncing the far right populace, a threat to germany's democracy. the demonstrators march through the city center to the main cathedral square where the ac held its final rally before the election. and for some analysis on today's regional elections in eastern germany, i'm joined to the studio by the w political corresponding hands from times really good to see you. so we keep hearing polls are showing that there's going to be a very good outcome for the 2 anti establishment parties on the far right and the far left. what is driving their appeal? so i think one major issue would show you and the size these 2 parties is uh,
8:03 am
the issue of migration and the migration one might say on anti foreign stands on both of these policies. uh, there is a lot of concern in eastern germany about the number of people that have been coming into germany, especially from syria. and i've gone this time, but also from north africa. and that's been driving the fall, right? agend ever since the a, if the party came into existence. and it's something that's similar to the fall, right? agendas elsewhere in the world and elsewhere in europe. but the 2nd thing, i think that to unify, as these policy is what's a new quote, initially, the anti establishment, the rejection of the established parties, which again is something that is a feature of eastern germany, where the potty landscape never really was established properly off the german unification, so 2 years ago. and then you'll have to say that both of these parties are pretty friendly towards russia and against the war and ukraine. and that again is an issue that is of concern,
8:04 am
especially in eastern germany. so these 3 features are what gives them the strength . well, we have to remember these are regional state elections. and interestingly, they don't really get to decide foreign policy in germany. but what would a strong showing for the far right a is the mean on a federal level and also possibly for future coalitions. well, 1st of all, that it would mean that this, the fall, right? gains a kind of wage a and the, the wage by voting are kind of official ways that it hasn't the attend to this extent anywhere in germany, although it is representative, didn't all the regional parliaments in gym nicole to in the west. and of course, also independent stock in the central problem and a bunch the winning and election becoming onset top, which is possible into any of these 2 stage selections that we're having today. that is something we haven't seen yet to close all other parties to form coalitions against the se, so that it could not, in fact, form
8:05 am
a government in one of these states. and that's what a re, uh, shuffle the cards on the n t i of the sides quite substantially, and would have the repair cautions even for central german politics. i'd like to talk to you about this new party, this zach of ogden connect a lions or b as w, as it's also referred to the founder of this. a lines that of i am convinced herself has described herself as a less conservative. but what exactly does that mean? what is her platform? in the sense it could say hope platform is she herself? and she is a very prominent politician on the left in germany, she used to be in the lift party. she is in fact a communist who came from east germany. so she speaks from an east german perspective to people in east to me. they like that to the vector is very popular
8:06 am
in that region. and she used to be in the german socialist party and for my east germany and from the i moved on into this life policy and then eventually got thrown off more of this by the policy and established her own policy. and it's very much her personality and her conservative model, it always says start of this form of communism in which she is support. switched to some extent, appeals to people that it's kind of hawks back to old times olden times. and at the same time, she's very conservative on social issues. so i think that's what drives her popularity is really good popularity. and in her wake, the party were also expecting the party of the chancellor of schultz, the s p, the party, the social democrats to do very poorly. why has that party been losing appeal among so many of motors, especially in the east of germany? again, that's 2 features to this. um,
8:07 am
on the one hand uh that is the fact that these uh, western passions, i guess you should call them traditional parties never really established a strong routes in eastern germany. they don't have a extensive membership there. and they are basically people from the west to uh, containing the not many people from the east. and then there is the trouble with the german central government with a 3 party condition of social democrats, screens and market liberals. free democrats who have been not very successful in establishing that policies in jo, many different bickering a lot different in fighting a lot. and that has really damaged their reputation, especially in the east. and it's really a possible, that's a, in section a and possibly even during the all 3 of these parties might end up not being in the regional part of parliament at all. it's touching, go for the act. and that's what really be a blur to all 3 of the governing parties. will of course,
