Three Ukrainian nationals and one Armenian were arrested, with ten more international arrest warrants also issued.
I’m guessing those “three Ukrainian nationals” have a lot more loyalty to Russia than their homeland. And I’m guessing I know where at least some of those other ten are located.
i feel this as well, we may see proof that this is indeed right in the next days or weeks. Thanks for all the nice posts and comments, looks as if you were jet propelled !

A series of scandals and spying allegations are jeopardising the election campaign of Germany’s AfD party, despite expectations that it will be crowned as the far right’s driving force in the next European Parliament.
The AfD’s hopes of big gains, driven by its self-projected image of being the only true German patriots, have been all but dashed after the party suffered a series of blows to its legitimacy, including allegations of spying for China.
Last month, an assistant to Maximilian Krah, AfD’s top candidate in the European elections, was arrested on suspicion of spying for Beijing, and the duo’s Parliament offices were searched.
Preventing Krah from further damaging AfD’s image wasn’t enough to stop the hard-right Identity and Democracy (ID) group in the European Parliament from removing the German party from their bloc.
AfD’s core voters won’t be put off by recent news, but those who are still undecided on who to cast their ballot for could still be swayed away from the far-right party in the wake of these scandals.
“They are selling their soul on Russian propaganda outlets and videos, a close collaborator of a far right politician was even arrested, accused of spying for China and giving information from the European parliament,” von der Leyen added.

These guys are the fucking biggest idiots in the world. They don’t worry about being Russian and Chinese operatives, they only worry about losing votes because people found out they are. It’s the whole you only sorry you got caught, but on a traitor to your nation level.
“They” isn’t a thing there: Part of the party is perfectly happy with it, seeing especially Putin as a role model, the other is perfectly opposed to it, not really digging uppity Slavs threatening to nuke Berlin. Fallouts in parliamentary factions have been had, the word “traitor” has been employed.
Nazi had principles and stood for something. Horrible somethings, but something.
These fucks don't stand for anything, they want to stir up shit and when money starts talking to them, they are really quick to throw any espoused principles straight out a 5th floor window.
Violence against politicians has been dominating the headlines, but instances of everyday racism and antisemitic attacks are causing German victim advice centres to sound the alarm.
Mayar, a 20-year-old nurse who fled Syria during the war and has lived in Germany for nearly nine years, feels a strong sense of German identity, having grown up there.
Country-wide mass protests were triggered in January when it emerged that AfD members held a secret meeting with German and Austrian far-right figures, including the neo-Nazi leader of the Identitarian movement Martin Sellner, to discuss a “remigration” plan.

Zobel pointed to a representative study by Prof Dr Dancygier from Princeton University that suggests between 38.7% and 42.5% of hate crime supporters would vote for AfD.
According to investigative outlet Correctiv, “48 AfD representatives and employees at district, state and federal level have recently been involved in violent acts”.

According to the German newspaper TAZ, judges in the Thuringia district of Gera share close ties with AfD politicians, both locally and nationally, quoting statistics of judges deciding in favour of asylum seekers in single-digit percentages. The judges have denied having any right-wing-leaning biases.
It is, alas, basically impossible to nail judges for perversion of justice based on statistics because you have to prove at least reckless intent. Add to that judicial independence and the possibility to do anything are very limited, I think at most stuff like re-distributing judges among districts to even out statistics would be constitutionally viable. Giving a general directive to state attorneys to appeal sentences which seem too harsh or lenient is also an idea, and push come to shove those appeals could be done by a special task force.
