    "Asked why he hired Jian G. as an assistant, Krah said, “We (the AfD) don’t have a lot of good people when it comes to trade expertise. That was one reason. Another reason is that I believe it is important to build teams out of people with different perspectives and backgrounds.”

      Foreign influence comes easy if the own people have little expertise. I am sure China and Russia welcome this.
