German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser defended the government's move to ban Compact, asserting that Germany's Basic Law provides means to protect democracy from constitutional enemies.
Faeser admitted her ministry had 'lost in parts' but maintained the court's ruling was part of a 'completely normal process' in Germany's constitutional democracy.
Faeser stated that banning Compact was crucial to combat 'intellectual arsonists' who incite hatred and violence against vulnerable groups, reinforcing the governmental stance.
Despite the provisional lifting of the ban, the court raised doubts about the proportionality of the government's actions, allowing Compact to publish under certain conditions.
