Summary

AfD shocks Germany with a historic 40% win in Saxony-Anhalt — their strongest ever showing — but can’t govern alone thanks to being labeled “confirmed far-right extremist” by intelligence agencies. Other parties refuse to cooperate, while AfD leader Ulrich Siegmund vows to push radical immigration and social policies regardless of power. The CDU has shut the door on any alliance, but AfD insists they have a mandate to rule. Enter the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance — a potential wildcard with policy overlaps, though their willingness to partner remains uncertain.
