CWN Editor's Note: Irme Stetter-Karp, president of the Central Committee of German Catholics, said that “over the years, the party [Alternative for Germany] has moved further and further to the right.

The party holds 78 out of 736 seats in the Bundestag, which is akin to the US House of Representatives.
