“Germany’s Most Dangerous Man” Could Score a Major Victory

Ulrich Siegmund could become the first far-right leader of a German state when Saxony-Anhalt votes on Sunday. The AfD’s leading candidate has hundreds of thousands of followers on social media and has been described by critics as the “Sonnyboy of right-wing extremism.”

In an interview with Svenska Dagbladet, Siegmund warned about crime on Swedish streets and said Germany should stop supporting Ukraine.

The far-right AfD, classified as extremist by Germany’s domestic intelligence service in five of the country’s 16 states, is heading toward what the article describes as a landslide victory in Saxony-Anhalt. The party is also dreaming of taking power in Berlin, as Europe watches the political drama in the European Union’s largest member state.

An AfD victory would be more than a breach of a political taboo. It would send shock waves through Friedrich Merz’s unpopular government and be seen as a sign that opposition to aid for Ukraine and sanctions against Russia is gaining ground among German voters.
