AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoSaxony-Anhalt Election Shock: With polls putting the AfD above 40% ahead of Sunday’s vote, Germany is bracing for a far-right state-level breakthrough in Saxony-Anhalt—potentially the first since WWII—while mainstream parties insist they won’t form coalitions with the AfD, leaving the key question as whether it can win an outright majority. AfD’s Program and Power Math: AfD lead candidate Ulrich Siegmund says he’ll govern alone only if the party wins an absolute majority, as rallies against the AfD draw thousands in Magdeburg and Halle and the campaign turns on migration, asylum curbs, and a hard line on “integration” funding. Hybrid War Row: Germany’s accusations that Russia was behind an explosive drone incident at Leipzig/Halle airport have triggered sanctions and diplomatic retaliation, with Moscow calling the claims fabricated and warning of “worthy” responses. Grid Sabotage Hunt: Police are searching for a 48-year-old suspect after explosives were found at his home and letters claimed responsibility for power-grid sabotage, with officials linking the motive to “climate extremism” and raising fears about critical infrastructure ahead of the election. Ukraine Drone Production: Germany-backed serial production of long-range strike drones for Ukraine has begun, including systems reported to reach up to 1,500 km, underscoring how the security agenda is feeding into industrial policy.
