The leader of Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, Alice Weidel, has demanded that the European Union be transformed into a federation of "sovereign states". The plan will make the union "loose" and in fact implies the destruction of the European Union, write British media. Weidel threatened that if the plan is not implemented, the AfD will initiate Dexit - Germany's exit from the European bloc, similar to the British Brexit. "We want to rebuild and reform the European Union. The European Union is no longer a collection of sovereign states. National parliaments and governments must take decision-making into their own hands," Weidel said.
