Questo risultato per un partito di conclamata estrema destra è terribile e deprimente, ma non è l’ultima parola. È fondamentale che la grande maggioranza del nostro Paese si schieri ora apertamente e attivamente in difesa della libertà, della democrazia e dello Stato di diritto. Spetta a noi lottare per la dignità umana, il rispetto e la tolleranza, opporci con voce forte e chiara e fare resistenza quando le nostre convinzioni sono minacciate.
(About Alternative for Germany's victory in September 2026) This result for a party of full-blown far right is terrible and depressing, but it is not the last word. It is vital that the great majority of our country now stand openly and actively in defence of freedom, democracy and the rule of law. It is up to us to fight for human dignity, respect and tolerance, to oppose ourselves with a loud and clear voice and to resist when our beliefs are threatened.
As quoted in Davide Dionisi, Germania, la vittoria dell’AfD. Le Chiese cristiane: “Non resteremo in silenzio"'', Vatican News (7 September 2026).
