Scholz Warns of Rising Far-Right Extremism as AfD Gains Ground

Widespread Protests Erupt Following Reports of AfD's Discussion on Mass Deportations

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz warns of rising far-right extremism in Germany, particularly from the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.
Scholz's warning comes as the AfD gains popularity, polling second nationally and first in three eastern German states.
Recent reports reveal that senior AfD members attended a meeting discussing mass deportations of immigrants, sparking widespread protests across Germany.
Germany's constitutional court recently ruled to cut state funding to the radical right-wing party, Die Heimat, potentially setting a precedent for other far-right parties like the AfD.
Scholz calls on Germans to stand up against the far right and protect democracy, as millions rally in support of democracy and against the AfD.
