Parties: Greens boss Banaszak fights for AfD ban

Green boss Felix Banaszak fights for an AfD ban. The AfD continues to radicalize step by step and more and more openly, said the federal chairman at the State Delegate Assembly of the Rhineland-Palatinate Greens in Idar-Oberstein. At the same time, there is normalization in dealing with the party in the political debate in dealing with the party.

Both tendencies should also make a rethink on CDU and CSU, Banaszak emphasized. “We have to act – now.” The Greens chief called Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU), Federal Minister of the Interior Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) as well as the heads of the Christian Democrats and the CSU to clear the way for the Federal Constitutional Court to examine the prohibition procedure.

“Read a way with us for a ban procedure in the German Bundestag, in the Federal Council and the best case also in the federal government,” said the federal chairman of the Greens. “It is what our defensive democracy needs now.”

CDU general secretary Linnemann skeptically

Last week it became known that the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution classified the entire AfD as secured right -wing extremist.

CDU general secretary Carsten Linnemann is skeptical about a possible AfD ban. He considers such a procedure to be “politically highly dangerous,” he told the “Welt am Sonntag”. “All well -known legal experts say that such a procedure would be very difficult according to the current situation and that the outcome is uncertain.”
