The latest news and top stories on Alternative for Germany. A prominent Germany-based far-right political party, Alternative for Germany (AfD) is dedicated to a platform of Euroscepticism, German nationalism and anti-immigration policies. Headquartered in Berlin, its main areas of activity include advocating for direct democracy and opposing the influence of Islam. The AfD has significantly disrupted German politics, becoming the largest opposition party in the Bundestag following the 2025 federal election. It is notable for being under surveillance by Germany’s domestic intelligence agency as a suspected extremist party, and other parties maintain a "firewall" refusing to form coalitions with it.
