"Rising Tensions: Germany Grapples with Far-Right Influence and Asylum Policy"

Thousands of people in Germany, including Chancellor Olaf Scholz and his foreign minister, protested against the far right following a report of a meeting where extremists discussed deporting millions of immigrants if they took power. The meeting involved figures from the Identitarian Movement and the far-right Alternative for Germany party. The furor has led to calls for considering a ban on AfD, which has moved steadily to the right since its founding in 2013, but opponents argue that the process could be lengthy and uncertain, potentially benefiting the party.
