Protests in Germany against the far-right

RTP Notícias8 September 2026 at 13:50

Thousands of people protested against the far-right in Berlin, gathering at the Brandenburg Gate, in the heart of the German capital. The protests took place while the far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD) was celebrating a significant victory in the regional elections.

The AfD won the legislative elections held on Sunday in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, obtaining almost 44% of the votes cast. This result represents an important milestone for the far-right party in the German political landscape.

The protests in the German capital arose as a direct response to the advance of the far-right party, with participants expressing their opposition to the political growth of the AfD. The gathering near one of Berlin's most emblematic monuments underlined the symbolic dimension of the political moment.
