Böttcher AG
Entrepreneurs calls for millions of million to AfD
A Thuringian entrepreneur calls for 999,990 euros that his supervisory board donated to the AfD. The boss speaks of coarse ingratus, the supervisory board of misunderstanding.
A supervisory board of a Thuringian company donated 999,990 euros to the AfD last week – now the head of the company wants money back, which he had given the man. Udo Böttcher, head of Böttcher AG in Jena, said in one with the donor Horst Jan Winter in one. The “Berliner Zeitung” had first reported.
Böttcher continues: “I have revoked the donation in the amount of the donation paid to the AfD by letter from today for gross unducks and asked Mr. Winter to repay the almost EUR 1 million.”
If the sum does not enter into a week within a week, he will file a lawsuit for repayment. He was not informed about the donation in advance.
Winter was called up on Wednesday as the supervisory board of Böttcher AG, as the company announced. Böttcher is disappointed with human and collegially deeply disappointed, it says in the explanation. Winter did not make any specifications on the use of the gift money. However, winter could have guessed that he would not have agreed with such a party donation.
Donate to AfD – Winter: I’m not an extremist
Winter himself said in a statement that his lawyer spread that he did not perform the donation in his function as the supervisory board of Böttcher AG, “but as a person Horst Jan Winter”. He regrets that he has not informed Böttcher about it. He distances himself from extremism and has instructed the AfD not to forward any of the regional associations that are secured by the money to the right -wing extremist. He called the associations in Saxony and Thuringia.
Winter left Winter open whether he contested the almost one million euros from the donation from Böttchers or from his own resources. He also did not enter into the statement when asked about a possible repayment.
