Alice Weidel, the leader of Germany's far-right AfD party, may not fit the typical profile of a far-right politician. She is gay with a Sri Lankan partner and splits her time between Berlin and Switzerland. While she is seen as more reasoned and less extreme within the party, she has endorsed the AfD's focus on migration and German nationalism. Weidel has made controversial statements about immigrants and has called for the repatriation of foreigners. She is also a proponent of economic liberalism and has a family history tied to the Nazi regime.
