Caritas President Eva Welskop-Deffaa has criticized the CDU’s anti-left policy, arguing that the party’s assessment of the Left as extremist is incorrect. Welskop-Deffaa, who sees clear differences between the Alternative for Germany (AfD) and the Left, warns the CDU against adopting AfD positions. She believes that imitating AfD could strengthen the far-right party and create additional prejudices. Welskop-Deffaa, a CDU member, is stepping down as Caritas President in 2022. More: Domradio
