Ulrich Siegmund, the 35-year-old leader of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) in Saxony-Anhalt, believes he is making history. His recent electoral success has positioned the far-right AfD party with the opportunity to govern a German state—Saxony-Anhalt—for the first time since the end of World War II (1939-1945). The AfD achieved a decisive victory in the Saxony-Anhalt elections, garnering up to 44.5% of the vote. Siegmund has been described as “the most dangerous man” in Germany, raising concerns about the radical measures he may implement should he gain power. The election results mark a significant shift in the political landscape of Saxony-Anhalt and Germany as a whole. This outcome presents a challenge to mainstream political forces and raises questions about the future direction of the country.
