A senior German far-right lawmaker called for an alliance between U.S. and German nationalist parties at a MAGA gala on Saturday where he was being honored, buoyed by a new U.S. security strategy praising Europe's patriotic parties. Markus Frohnmaier was among some 20 state, federal and EU lawmakers from the Alternative for Germany to attend the annual black-tie gala hosted by the New York Young Republican Club. The showpiece gala has become a gathering point for MAGA-aligned Republicans and international far-right figures in recent years, with U.S. President Donald Trump himself headlining it two years ago.
