AfD Kompakt, September 14, 2021.

The clear signal put out by the more than 300 members with their letter opposed to the constant condemnation and discrimination by the United Nations is very welcome and accordingly hopeful. The AfD has in the past ever again demanded an end to this practice and thereby urgently appealed primarily to the Federal government and Foreign Minister Heiko Maas to no longer vote with the enemies of Israel in the United Nations. Previously in 2019, I held out to the Chancellor in the Bundestag that she permitted votes against Israel a total of 16 times in 2018 and likewise 14 times in 2019. I asked her how long she wanted to continue her course hostile to Israel. She answered only with evasive lip service, yet could not deny the anti-Israel policy of her government.

I hope therefore that this initiative shakes up the Federal government and they finally let acts follow their lip service for Israel in the United Nations and, for that, especially support that the discriminatory, permanent point in the daily order on Israel finally disappears.
