The chancellor said Germany \u201cwould not accept\u201d directives from outsiders about how to run its democracy \u2014 and certainly not to work with such a party.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThat is not done, certainly not among friends and allies,\u201d Mr. Scholz said. \u201cWhere our democracy goes from here is for us to decide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Scholz was joined in his criticism later Saturday by Friedrich Merz, his rival as the chancellor candidate for the conservative Christian Democrats, whom polls suggest is the favorite to be Germany\u2019s next leader.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Vance spent much of his speech on Friday scolding Europeans for what he suggested were Soviet-style restrictions on free speech across the continent. On Saturday, Mr. Merz defended Germany\u2019s laws that prohibit particular forms of speech, including hate speech and banned Nazi slogans, including on social media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He also suggested that Mr. Trump\u2019s administration was suppressing speech in the United States, after it <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/14\/us\/politics\/white-house-ap-gulf-of-mexico.html\" title=\"\">moved on Friday to kick The Associated Press out of reporting pools<\/a> and off Mr. Trump\u2019s plane because the news agency refuses to go along with Mr. Trump\u2019s directive to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the \u201cGulf of America.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">\u201c<\/strong>We stick to the rules which are given by our democratic institutions,\u201d Mr. Merz said. \u201cFree speech remains free speech and remains part of our open, democratic society. And fake news, hate speech and offenses remain subject to legal restraints and controlled by independent courts.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI think I should say,\u201d he added, \u201cthat in front of the events which took place in D.C. yesterday \u2014 we would never kick out the news agency, out of the press room of our chancellor.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The comments were the latest in a series of critiques of Mr. Vance\u2019s speech from German politicians before the election next Sunday. Mr. Scholz\u2019s Social Democrats are running third or fourth in most polls. The AfD is running second, and its chancellor candidate, Alice Weidel, met Mr. Vance on Friday in Munich.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">No party in the German Parliament will join with the AfD to form a government. Parts of the AfD have been classified as extremist by German intelligence. Some of its members have been convicted of violating German law against the use of Nazi slogans. Others have been arrested for trying to overthrow the federal government.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">That collective shunning of the AfD and other extremist parties is known as the firewall. Mr. Vance took aim at it on Friday, saying the AfD and other hard-right parties across Europe represented legitimate voter concerns about high levels of migration into European countries from the Middle East and elsewhere.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThere is no room for firewalls,\u201d Mr. Vance said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Attendees at Mr. Vance\u2019s speech on Friday had been expecting to hear details of the Trump administration\u2019s plans for Ukraine peace talks and NATO defense policies. Instead, they heard the vice president call restrictions on free speech a greater threat to Europe than military aggression from Russia or China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Scholz chided Mr. Vance for that focus in a question-and-answer session after his speech. He was asked by Zanny Minton Beddoes, the editor in chief of The Economist, if Mr. Vance had made any points in his speech worth reflecting on.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cYou mean all these very relevant discussions about Ukraine and security in Europe?\u201d Mr. Scholz said, drawing laughter from the audience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Then he addressed Mr. Vance\u2019s critique of European speech restrictions directly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe should be very clear that free speech in Europe means that you are not attacking others in ways that are against legislation and laws we have in our country,\u201d Mr. Scholz said. \u201cAnd that\u2019s the case. There is no difference between difference between the digital world and the analog world to say it like this. And we have to be very clear that hate and all this, which is so bad for our societies, should be not the reality of public debate.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\"
