Alexander von Wiest (27 January 1957 - 19 May 2012), was a Besmenian politican, who was party leader of the Besmenian Republican Party from 1988 to 1989 and leader of the BRP's successor party National Besmenian Party from 1989 until his death in 2012.
Von Wiet was elected to the Federal Chamber in the 1984 Besmenian federal election. At 27, he was the youngest MP. After the resignation of Helmut Schwarzberg as BRP party chairman after the heavy defeat of the BRP in the 1988 Besmenian federal election, von Wiest was appointed as the new party chairman. At the age of 31, von Wiest was the youngest chairman of a political party in Besmenia. Under him, the BRP and the 1987 founded party National Besmenian Alliance joined forces in July 1989 to form the new National Besmenian Party. Von Wiest became NBP party leader.
Von Wiest's critics called him, among other things, a right-wing populist with some right-wing extremist ideology. In his years as party leader of the BRP and NBP, von Wiest often deliberately used insulting words towards other politicians and used a provocative language. In doing so. He also often spoke disparagingly about international politicians. To this day, von Wiest is considered as one of the most controversial politicians in Besmenia and international.
