In the wake of the terrorist attack in Solingen, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Brandenburg is calling for a ban on public events, particularly folk festivals, for asylum seekers, refugees, and foreigners obligated to leave the country.
The party is also pushing for the establishment of its own border police, consistent deportation of unauthorized individuals, and an end to diversity in Germany. Additionally, the AfD in Aachen has been promoting their political engagement through a summer festival at the local animal shelter, while a controversial incident occurred in Brandenburg at a memorial event for the victims of Nazi euthanasia crimes, where an AfD politician was denied the opportunity to lay a wreath.
The debate over the AfD's participation in the event continues, with the Stiftung Brandenburgische Gedenkstätten admitting to an error in their invitation process. Furthermore, protests are being planned in response to the AfD's upcoming citizen dialogue in the Essen Philharmonie, with various demonstrations and actions scheduled.
Lastly, a small town called Karlsdorf is reportedly leaning towards the AfD due to its isolation and lack of mobile network coverage, leading residents to feel disconnected from established parties and society. These headlines also touch on the ongoing debate surrounding the deportation of asylum seekers to Syria, with several politicians advocating for the resumption of deportations despite the legal and political challenges involved.
