Andreas Wild
Andreas Wild is an MP for the far-right anti-Islam party AfD in Germany.
Attendance at PEGIDA rally
In mid-December 2016, Wild attended and spoke at a PEGIDA rally in Dresden and praised the 'patriotic' anti-Islamic movement. He said:
- 'I think Pegida is a bold movement of patriotic Germans who show the world that Germans want to have their own state. [..] Germans want to have their habits and the Germans want Germany as their home country and not an Islamic state, which some people are planning to build in Germany.[..] [O]n the streets we need you, and we need AfD in the parliament.'
