The Rise of Germany’s Far Right

Seventy-five years after the end of World War II, right-wing extremism is again on the rise in Germany. Ian Bremmer sits down with the country's former Defense Minister, Karl Theodor zu Guttenberg, to understand the reasons why and road ahead for Germany and Europe. The two discuss the increasing popularity of the far-right political party AfD, the nation's place in Europe and the world, mounting disapproval of the German governments refugee policies and Angela Merkel's legacy.
