According to a fresh Infatest poll, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party is reaching 41 percent of the vote in the September elections in Saxony-Anhalt, bringing it significantly closer to the possibility of forming the government in this federal state. The party could thus have its first minister-president at the state level. With such a result, the AfD would have a 15 percentage point lead over its rival, the CDU. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗ ihned.cz ↗
The AfD's shift in Germany's political landscape has triggered numerous reactions. Discussion about the possibility of regulating or banning the party is intensifying. Some commentators argue that if the democratic system is not to collapse, the approach to this party must fundamentally change. In Berlin, there is also debate about how the AfD would position itself regarding support for a minority government led by the Union. Die Zeit ↗
However, internal problems are weakening the AfD from within. Departing party member Rüdiger Klos issued an internal critical letter in which he claims that leading party figures, including Markus Frohnmaier, are engaging in abuse of power. In another area affecting politics, a court ruling in Munich acquitted AfD member Bystron in a case related to suspected promotion of content associated with Nazism. Spiegel.de ↗
