Alice Weidel, leader of the Alternative for Germany, delivered a combative speech at the CPAC conference in Budapest, warning that Europe faces a political and cultural struggle over national sovereignty. Weidel argues that European civilisation rests on Greek philosophy, Roman statecraft and Christian tradition, and says the sovereign nation-state is essential to preserving those foundations. She targets what she calls “Globalist elites” in Brussels, criticising mass migration, climate regulations, gender policies and EU economic policy.
