CSU Opposes Initiative for AfD Ban

Markus Söder argues against making AfD a victim, advocating for better policies instead of a ban.

CSU leader Markus Söder has publicly rejected a proposed ban on the AfD, stating that it would turn perpetrators into victims.
Söder emphasizes the need for improved political strategies rather than legal actions to counter the AfD's influence.
A cross-party group of Bundestag members, including those from the SPD, Union, Greens, and Left, is pushing for a ban on the AfD.
The initiative aims to file a request with the Federal Constitutional Court to prohibit the AfD.
Despite the support from over 37 parliamentarians, skepticism remains within both the SPD and Union regarding the ban proposal.
