The victory of the AfD in Thuringia represents the first time a far-right party has finished first in a German state election since WWII, showcasing a significant political shift.
AfD leader Bjorn Hocke labeled the party's lead a 'historic victory' and expressed readiness to assume government responsibility, highlighting the shifting political landscape in Germany.
Despite the AfD's success, no other parties have indicated willingness to form a coalition with them, demonstrating a firm boundary set by other parties against the far-right.
The CDU’s Carsten Linnemann reiterated the party's stance against coalition with the AfD, emphasizing a clear separation from far-right political agendas in both Thuringia and Saxony.
