‘This could just be the beginning’: minorities fear first far-right win in German state election

Polls show the far‑right Alternative for Germany (AfD) likely to win the Saxony‑Anhalt state election, pledging stricter deportation policies. Minority groups say the prospect raises fears of discrimination and prompts difficult decisions about remaining in the region or emigrating. The potential shift marks the party’s first major victory at the state level, intensifying concerns across Germany.
