Thuringia's Interior Minister and others are discussing a possible ban on the AfD party, citing an expert opinion suggesting a good chance of success. A decision from the Federal Constitutional Court is required for a ban, similar to a failed 2017 attempt with the NPD. The AfD is currently challenging its classification as extremist in courts.
The claims regarding Thuringia's Interior Minister calling for a ban on the AfD party, an expert opinion supporting a lawsuit against AfD, and the unsuccessful 2017 attempt to ban the NPD lack available external evidence. Thus, their truthfulness cannot be verified or refuted. However, a fact-check by DW News refutes the claim that the AfD's classification as a right-wing extremist organization has been withdrawn, indicating it remains in effect but suspended pending court review. Overall, due to limited evidence, the score reflects the uncertainty surrounding most of the claims, except for the AfD classification dispute, which has been fact-checked.
