AfD plans radical separation of controversial youth organization!

Sachsen, Deutschland - The AfD apparently plans a drastic separation from its controversial youth organization Junge Alternative (yes). A spokesman for the party confirmed that a change in the party statute is considered, which should enable the establishment of a new youth organization. This decision follows various internal problems and the observation of the yes by the Federal Constitutional Protection, which classifies it as secured right -wing extremist. The yes is criticized for the fact that their political positions are not in line with the Basic Law. In particular, the chairman Hannes Gnauck, who is involved in a parliamentary immunity deprivation, is the focus, since he was classified as a "extremist" during his time, as reported.

The plans for splitting the yes have been indicated in the AfD for a long time. The Federal Executive Board has now stated that a new organizational model, similar to that of the young socialists (Jusos) of the SPD, is discussed. Here, all AfD members under the age of 36 would automatically have access to the new youth organization, which would enable stronger control of party-internal structures. Critics within and outside of the party fear that despite these measures, they will continue to show extremist tendencies, as zdf.de In order to bring about an official separation from the yes, the AfD needs a two -thirds majority at a party congress, which strengthens control within the party, but the original identity of the youth organization may be endangered.
