Alternative For Germany (AfD) Launches European Parliamentary Elections Campaign

DONAUESCHINGEN, GERMANY - APRIL 27: Alice Weidel, co-leader of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) political party, speaks to supporters at the official AfD election campaign launch ahead of European parliamentary elections on April 27, 2024 in Donaueschingen, Germany. The AfD, which is currently the second strongest party in polls in Germany, has recently experienced setbacks. Its two lead candidates for the election, Maximilian Krah and Petr Bystron, stand both accused of having possibly accepted cash payments from Russia, and a top aide to Krah was recently arrested in Germany on charges of spying for China. European parliamentary elections are scheduled to take place from June 6-9. (Photo by Arnd Wiegmann/Getty Images)
