German security agencies face dilemma after far-right, far-left gains
Germany's security services face a dilemma after gains by far-right and far-left forces. Tensions between parties and the agencies are rising, and the idea of systematic exclusion from information sharing underscores the seriousness of the situation.

Germany's security services face a dilemma after gains by far-right and far-left political forces. Tensions between political parties and security agencies are so great that the idea of systematic exclusion from information sharing is being discussed.
This idea underscores the seriousness of the friction between the parties and the security services. Details of a possible exclusion and its consequences are not provided.
Against this backdrop, demonstrations were held in Lower Saxony against a pre-election event by the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in the town of Wietze. The action took place ahead of local elections scheduled for 10 September 2026.
