Ever since the cat was out of the bag, it's been a hot topic! The 1100-page top-secret report issued by the Constitutional Protection Authority (CPA) on branding the Alternative for Germany (AfD) as a right-wing extremist endeavor has now got its 18-page excerpt let loose by the platform "Ask the State."
Pulling content, such as speeches and interviews from the bigwigs of the AfD, this excerpt revealed a few openly democracy-, foreign-, and Islam-snubbing views. From Alice Weidel, Tino Chrupalla, and Maximilian Krah, the excerpt offers a glimpse into their thoughtsful sayings.
Since last weekend, CPA has done a complete 180 with the AfD, maliciously branding its presence across Germany as a right-wing extremist undertaking. Previously, it only had the party under suspicion. With this incriminating 1100-page report (collected over many years, mind you), the report was a secret till then. New Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) hinted that the report needs a thorough review before anything concrete can come out of it. The AfD, however, has already filed a lawsuit against the upgrade.
The CPA separates the statements of AfD leaders into four segments. These include "Ethnic Statements," "Xenophobia," "Islamophobia," and "Democratic Principles."
According to ntv.de and AFP, here's what's brewing on the tea front:
- Background: The AfD, formed in 2013, rose to prominence by opposing Germany's immigration policies and the European Union's handling of migration. In the 2025 federal elections, it won 152 seats, making it the second-largest party in the Bundestag.
- Controversy: This marks the first time a party with federal parliamentary representation in contemporary Germany has been labeled as extremist by the domestic intelligence agency.

Bonus Info:
- The AfD has been accused of using ethnocentric slurs, undermining democracies, and demonizing Islam, among other things. Despite facing criticism from international figures like U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the party stands firm, attracting support from populist figures like Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump's associates.
- The undersigning of the AfD as a right-wing extremist organization allows German authorities to employ surveillance and intelligence-gathering tools against the party's activities at the federal level.
- The classification has sparked debates, with some seeing it as a defensive measure by German authorities against rising anti-democratic forces in the political mainstream, while others view it as an attack on democracy itself.
- The community policy of German authorities now includes the surveillance and intelligence-gathering of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, following the 1100-page top-secret report that labels the party as a right-wing extremist endeavor.
- In the employment policy sector, politicians are discussing the implications of this classification, with Chancellor Friedrich Merz suggesting a thorough review before any concrete actions are taken.
- Amidst war-and-conflicts and policy-and-legislation discussions in politics, the general news is abuzz with the accusations facing the AfD, including ethnocentric slurs, undermining democracies, and Islamophobia.
- In the realm of employment policy, the AfD party has already initiated a lawsuit against the upgrade, seeking to challenge the label of right-wing extremism.
- On platforms like WhatsApp and social media, the debate continues between supporters of the AfD and critics, with some viewing the classification as a defensive measure against rising anti-democratic forces, while others see it as an attack on democracy itself.
