The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution has classified the Alternative for Germany party as a far-right organization.

Jin10 reported on May 2 that the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution of Germany announced on the 2nd that it has classified the Alternative for Germany (AfD) as a clearly far-right organization and will monitor the party at the federal level. The AfD described this as a "purely political decision." The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution stated that there is widespread opposition within the AfD to the "fundamental order of free democracy," and politicians from the party continually incite the public against accepting refugees and immigrants. The statement said: "We conclude that the AfD is a staunch far-right organization. This conclusion is based on an extremely careful expert review lasting about three years."
