Green boss Nouripour: AfD ban urgently needs to come into focus!

Green Co-Chairman Omid Nouripour has clearly spoken out for a ban procedure against the AfD at the Federal Constitutional Court. In an interview with the "Welt am Sonntag", he emphasized that the evidence against the party was clear. "I was skeptical at first, but the public burden of proof is overwhelming," said Nouripour, who also recalled the history of the Weimar Republic. There the Bavarian Interior Minister tried to proceed against the NSDAP, but failed what catastrophic consequences resulted.

He also warned of the recent developments in the Thuringian state parliament, where the AfD, as soon as it obtained it, immediately exploited them to undermine democratic principles. Nouripour demands that a "defensive democracy" should not stand by and that anti -democrats gain influence. He made it clear his point of view: One had to actively combat the decomposition of democracy to avoid similar mistakes as in the past, reports www.tixio.de .
