Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said
Friday he hoped Italians in Germany don't vote for the far-right
Alternative for Germany (AfD), "also because that party does not
have any liking for Italy".
"I hope no Italian votes for AfD in Germany. Also because they
have no sympathy for Italy", said Tajani, who is also deputy
premier, on the sidelines of a European People's Party (EPP)
meeting in Berlin.
When asked by journalists about possible alliances with the
German far-right in Germany and about collaborations between the
EPP and far-right parties in Europe, Tajani repeatedly insisted:
"I have nothing to do with AfD and I don't want to have anything
to do with it", "I am light years away from their ideology".
