Before the regional elections in Saxony-Anhalt, thousands of Germans took to the streets to show their support for democracy and human rights. The demonstrations arose in a context of political tension in the region.
The AfD (Alternative for Germany) is ahead in the polls for these regional elections. The far-right party has gained significant ground in several regions of Germany.
However, the article raises a fundamental question about the political future of Saxony-Anhalt: even if the AfD achieves high results, there will be doubt about who it will be able to form a government with, as the other parties have refused to cooperate with the radical right.
Saxony-Anhalt is a German federal state in the east of the country, a region traditionally more favorable to the AfD compared to western Germany, where the party has less support.
