- Alternative for Germany won a major victory in Saxony-Anhalt, bringing it close to an absolute majority.

Alternative for Germany has scored its biggest regional victory in Germany since the end of World War II, according to the headline framing of the report.
The party’s broad win in Saxony-Anhalt has brought it close to an absolute majority. That position puts AfD at the threshold of potentially forming the first regional government in Germany led by a far-right party.
The result is presented as part of a wider European trend. Far-right parties have been gaining ground in elections across many European countries, and AfD’s advance in Saxony-Anhalt is described as one expression of that movement.
