Jörg Meuthen, July 20, 2020, EU Collective Debt


Jörg Meuthen
EU Collective Debt
AfD Kompakt, July 20, 2020

[Jörg Meuthen is a national chairman of the Alternative für Deutschland and he leads 
the AfD’s delegation in the European Parliament where the AfD is part of the Identity 
and Democracy party.]

If the EU establishment considers thrift and a no to collective irresponsibility by means of a debt community to be divisive, then this only shows how standards have meanwhile slipped in Brussels – namely, in the completely wrong direction. There remains hope that Netherlands premier Rutte and Austrian Chancellor Kurz remain firm and do not allow themselves to be impressed by the insolent provocations of Merkel, Macron & Co. We Germans would be grateful to them should we thereby be spared a sum totaling billions. That Merkel urges the opposite only shows that she does not concern herself with German interests but rather once again sells these. Borrowing through the EU violates all principles and economic reason.
