He was speaking after Alternative for Germany (AfD) became the country's first far-Right party to win a regional election since the Second World War.
Mr Scholz said: "Our country cannot and must not get used to this. The AfD is damaging Germany. It is weakening the economy, dividing society and ruining our country's reputation." Yesterday he urged other parties to block the AfD from power. He said: "All democratic parties are now called upon to form stable governments without right-wing extremists."

The AfD came a close second in Sunday's other big state election, in the more populous neighbouring state of Saxony.
