The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) is celebrating a “major victory” in courts after judges in Cologne banned Germany’s domestic intelligence agency from treating the party as a “right-wing extremist group.”

@hanse_mina This is ridiculous. The main #AfD party is celebrating a "win" because they are "only" allowed to be classified as a *suspicion* of being rightwing extremist group … for now. The legal process is NOT over yet.
This news is being abused for propaganda to make it look like the AfD has been "vindicated" which is NOT the case.
5 of the 16 Landesverbände are still classified as rightwing extremist: Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Brandenburg, Thuringia, Lower Saxony (NEW!).
