Why It Matters

Die Außenpolitik liegt in Deutschland in der Zuständigkeit des Bundes, nicht der Landesregierungen. AfD und BSW nutzen ihre Mehrheit im Landtag von Sachsen-Anhalt für symbolische politische Vorstöße.

Font size

Die AfD und das BSW haben unmittelbar nach der Konstituierung des neuen Landtags in Magdeburg einen Antrag zum Stopp der deutschen Waffenlieferungen an die Ukraine eingebracht.

Die beiden Parteien fordern, dass Deutschland die finanzielle und militärische Unterstützung für das von Russland überfallene Land sofort einstellen soll. Auch die Wirtschaftssanktionen gegen Russland sollten gestoppt werden, verlangten sie.

Landesregierungen sind nicht für die Außenpolitik Deutschlands zuständig. AfD und BSW hatten jedoch angekündigt, ihre neue Mehrheit im Landtag von Sachsen-Anhalt nutzen zu wollen, um Druck auf die Bundesregierung auszuüben.
