In order to protect the Constitution, it was clear a year ago. On the other hand, the AfD took legal action in the election year. Now the administrative court in Cologne decides.

Much is at stake for the AfD at the court hearing that begins today in Cologne. In the next two days, the administrative court will have to decide whether the AfD is a suspected right-wing extremist, so the intelligence can keep a close eye. The interest in the hearing is so great that it was moved from the court to the exhibition center in Cologne.

A year ago it was clear

To protect the Constitution, it was clear a year ago. The AfD is a suspected right-wing extremist. On the other hand, the AfD took legal action in the election year and was able to stop this designation, but only temporarily. Only now the content will be selected. The AfD rejects it as a suspected right-wing extremist and wants to prevent the same for those called the wing.

The Pavilion is the National Fleckish Network around the state leader of the Thuringian party, Bjorn Höck. This suite has been officially dismantled. According to the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, it is still standing. Moreover, it seems that it is these people from the powerful AfD unions in East Germany who assert themselves in the internal struggle for power and radicalize the Federalist Party as a whole.

Legend:

A year ago, the Alternative for Germany party was able to stop designating it as a suspected far-right case.

Four government associations have already been listed as suspected cases and can be monitored and wiretapped by the intelligence. President Stephen J. Kramer told ARD what the Thuringian Office for Constitutional Protection should consider when making its decision: “We haven’t made life easy for ourselves because we have to clearly distinguish. What is radicalization actually in the legal sense of the legal definitions of constitutional protections laws? For example, what is the controversy? For example, what is populism?

It will be a problem for the AfD officials

If the entire AfD were declared a suspected right-wing extremist, it would be a problem for party officials in particular, as they are subject to a duty of loyalty to the constitution. So members may turn away. Experts believe, however, that the party could be more radical. It was not clear if the ruling would be issued tomorrow and whether that would mean the end of the legal dispute.
