German spy agency brands far-right AfD as ‘extremist’, opens way for closer surveillance
2025-05-03
[IsraelTimes] Report calls Alternative for Germany party a racist and anti-Muslim organization stirring up ‘irrational fears and hostility’; move comes amid soaring support for far right in Europe

Germany’s spy agency on Friday classified the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) as "extremist," enabling it to step up monitoring of the country’s biggest opposition party, which decried the move as a "blow against democracy."

A 1,100-page report by experts found that the AfD is a racist and anti-Moslem organization, a finding that grants the security services powers to recruit informants and intercept party communications.
