Elon Musk endorsed Germany’s far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) in an op-ed, calling it the country’s “last spark of hope.” His support has sparked controversy, particularly as Germany approaches a federal election. Reactions from politicians and journalists reveal strong opposition and concern over Musk’s stance. In 2021, Germany’s domestic intelligence agency labelled the AfD a suspected extremist organisation at the national level.
