The youth wing of Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), known as the Young Alternative, has been officially dissolved following a vote by party delegates. This decision reflects the AfD's aim to distance itself from the increasingly extremist views associated with the youth organization, which had drawn significant media attention and criticism for its radical positions since its inception in 2015. The group's classification as 'confirmed right-wing extremist' by the Office for Protection of the Constitution further justified the party's decision to sever ties, despite the youth wing's earlier attempts to assert its independent identity.
The youth group had drawn criticism from AfD leadership due to its radical stances and associations, leading to its official dissolution after a party congress voted overwhelmingly for it.
The Young Alternative, classified as 'confirmed right-wing extremist' by Germany's Office for Protection of the Constitution, sparked controversies and eroded the AfD's image as a party.
