Germany's far-right AfD party rises in polls ahead of elections

Protest against the Alternative for Germany party (AfD)

Germany is currently facing a growing challenge with the rise of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AFD) party in the lead-up to important upcoming elections. Recent opinion polls suggest that the AFD is now the second most popular party in the country, causing concerns among mainstream political parties that they may secure a significant portion of the votes in the upcoming months.
