The Alternative for Germany (AfD) faces scrutiny as the Office for the Protection of the Constitution classifies it as 'confirmed right-wing extremist.' The party is challenging this designation in court, prompting the intelligence service to suspend its statement pending a legal decision. While public sentiment largely views the AfD's agenda as contrary to democratic principles, discussions arise around potentially banning the party, with concerns about social division. Experts believe a court ruling could clarify if the AfD poses a threat to democracy, influencing the future of political discourse in Germany.
If it comes to the conclusion that the AfD does not endanger the basic democratic order, we will have to continue to deal with it in parliament.
Supporters of the ban insist that enemies of democracy should not be put in a position to able to destroy democracy.
