AfD nears 44 percent in Saxony-Anhalt as Union stays quiet

The AfD has surged to nearly 44 percent in Saxony-Anhalt, while the Union has remained silent on the result. In Berlin, where Die Linke won, Union-led states are now threatening to cut Berlin's share of the federal financial equalization scheme — the only state facing such a threat. Critics say the response exposes a double standard, with democratic election results being accepted or punished depending on who wins.
Why now: The contrast between the Union's silence on the AfD result and financial threats against left-led Berlin is being read as politically selective treatment.
