In view of the results of the state elections, the Potsdam political scientist Gideon Botsch warns of a “fundamental threat to democracy” in Brandenburg. After the election victory of the AfD, which the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution classifies as a suspected right-wing extremist case, on Sunday, the scientist, who works at the Moses Mendelssohn Center at the University of Potsdam, accused the other parties of having allowed the AfD to put its issues on the political agenda.
