- Weidel criticized the unelected European Commission’s exclusive power to propose EU-wide laws as a democratic checks-and-balances problem.
- The party wants to replace the European Parliament with an assembly of representatives from the 27 national parliaments; the Commission would only administer.
- The strategy paper proposes ending direct elections for European lawmakers and making the European Council the central decision-making body.
- The AfD would consider withdrawing from EU-wide agreements; if restructuring fails, it seeks a referendum on Germany’s continued EU membership.
Therefore we say that we must rebuild the European Union, and return the competences to the national parliaments and governments.— Alice Weidel, AfD party leader, at a press conference in the European Parliament in Strasbourg (speaking in English)

- SPD member Daniel Born from Baden-Württemberg marked a swastika next to an AfD representative's name during a secret vote.
- Stuttgart’s prosecution found insufficient evidence to pursue criminal charges and declined to initiate an investigation.
- Following the incident, Born resigned from multiple political positions but will keep his parliamentary seat until the term ends.
- The swastika was not publicly displayed, so no criminal case was pursued for dissemination or insult.
I noted the swastika, it was a knee-jerk reaction and a serious mistake.— Daniel Born, in a personal statement regarding his behavior during a secret vote.
