  • Björn Höcke, leader of the Thuringian AfD, presented a report in Berlin aimed at ending the surveillance of the AfD by the constitutional protection agency.

  • The report cites Article 55 of the Thuringian constitution, which protects legislators from legal action related to their official duties.

  • Höcke demands the dismissal of all legal proceedings against him, threatening constitutional officials while framing indemnity as a safeguard for democracy.

  • It remains unclear if the initiative was coordinated with the national party, as the constitutional protection agency has classified the AfD as established right-wing extremist.
  • All proceedings against me must be terminated, as the indemnity protection applies to every member of parliament at all times.
