- At a hearing of the Thüringer Landtag’s legal affairs committee, Hape Kerkeling supported proceedings to ban the AfD.
- He compared the AfD with the NSDAP and said anyone relativizing Nazi crimes would abandon the Basic Law’s principles.
- The article criticizes Kerkeling’s historical explanation of the Nazis’ rise as inconsistent with current historical research.
- Under the Basic Law, only the Bundestag, Federal Government or Bundesrat may submit a party-ban application to the Federal Constitutional Court.
Fear, lies and hatred were the ingredients of the National Socialist ideology, and they are the same ingredients driving the agenda of this far-right party today.— Hape Kerkeling, speaking in the Thuringian state parliament’s Justice Committee on an AfD ban
