"It is a time bomb that gave its first warning sign": elections in Germany fed Putin's "Trojan horse" and brought a message for Portugal

CNN Portugal7 September 2026 at 13:35

The AfD's victory in Saxony-Anhalt is being described as a "time bomb" that gave its first warning sign. The electoral result feeds what is described as Putin's "Trojan horse" in Europe.

The AfD emerges as a growing force of the German far-right, achieving significant results that exceed expectations. This advance represents a warning for the entire European continent, which faces a similar trend of far-right party growth.

The result also exposes the decline of traditional German parties, which are losing ground to more radical formations. This erosion of establishment parties reflects a shift in Germany's political landscape.

The article warns that this trend in Germany may benefit one of the West's greatest enemies, referring to Vladimir Putin and Russian influence in European politics. The AfD's growth may represent a strategic advantage for Moscow's interests on the continent.
