German Parties Debate Potential AfD Ban Over Constitutional Concerns

Political leaders and parties are divided on pursuing a ban of the AfD, citing threats to democracy and constitutional violations.

The Left Party has passed a resolution urging the examination of a ban on the AfD, labeling it as Germany's most dangerous party.
Felix Banaszak, candidate for the Green Party leadership, expressed support for an AfD ban but noted the current lack of parliamentary majority for such a move.
Proponents across parties are seeking support in the Bundestag to initiate a constitutional review of the AfD's legality.
The AfD is under observation by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution as a right-wing extremist suspect case.
To ban the AfD, it must be proven that the party actively opposes the democratic constitution in an aggressive manner.
