Tagesschau·DE·about 10 hours ago
Around 150,000 people in about 20 German cities protested against the far-right AfD on Saturday, following the party's near-44% result in the Sachsen-Anhalt state election. The protests, organized by Pruef, which advocates for an AfD ban, signal rising political polarization. The development underscores potential shifts in German domestic politics and could influence federal policy debates.
