German elections: ‘We’ve got a real problem’ says expert after historic far-right wins | DW News
The far-right Alternative for Germany party has won Sunday’s election in the eastern state of Thuringia, a region where it’s considered by German intelligence to be an extremist organization that threatens democracy. At a national level, it’s also being investigated for possible extremism. The party, known as AfD, won just under a third of the votes in the state. It vocally opposes military support to Ukraine and wants to prohibit most immigration. 00:00 Germany’s far-right AfD wins first state election 02:37 Dan Hough, University of Sussex 06:11 Far-right leader invites other parties for talks 06:42 DW’s Matthew Moore reports from Thuringia 11:07 AfD comes second in Saxony 12:46 DW’s Giulia Saudelli reports from Saxony 17:46 Richard Walker, DW chief international editor #germany #elections #farright Credit to : DW News
