German media fact-checks AfD leader Weidel's ZDF interview claims

Following AfD leader Alice Weidel's Sunday interview on Germany's ZDF television, the broadcaster fact-checked her statements. Claims examined included Germany potentially leaving the Schengen zone, the stability of the euro and the number of unemployed people who have been granted citizenship. Several of Weidel's assertions were found to be imprecise or at odds with official data.
