"All democratic parties are now called upon to form stable governments without right-wing extremists," Scholz said, in reference to the AfD. He said the party's success on Sunday was concerning.
"Our country cannot and must not become accustomed to this," Scholz said. "The AfD damages our country. It weakens the economy, divides society, and ruins our country's reputation."
"The election results of Sunday are bitter also for us. And yet, the SPD stuck together," he said, adding that the party had conducted a good and clear campaign.
"That paid off, because the bleak prognoses regarding the SPD did not come to pass," he said, highlighting that the party avoided losing representation in the two eastern state parliaments.
