Spy investigation into the AfD’s Maximilian Krah and his assistant ramps up in Brussels.
Belgian and German police on Tuesday conducted searches at the European Parliament offices of a far-right MEP and his aide as part of an investigation into suspected Chinese espionage.
German authorities said the Federal Prosecutor’s office had requested to search the offices of MEP Maximilian Krah, top candidate for next month’s EU election from the far-right Alternative for Germany party (AfD), and his aide Jian G., who is suspected of “of secret service agent activity.”
German police arrested the aide in April, rocking the AfD while it polls in second place nationally.

lol AfD. Of course.
Traitor
When the AfD marched through our cities with cries of “Volksverräter!”, I should have recognized it as a declaration of intent.
People-traitors?
Traitors against the people, so yeah
Not to be confused with Volksfahrräder!
Which sounds really similar in the saxon dialect.
I’m curious, how exactly is the Right spinning this in Germany? Is it similar to the Americans’ ‘witch hunt’ messaging?
Pretty much, yes. He didn’t know anything and if the authorities had told him he’d have fired the guy but instead the authorities waited until the European election was close so they could make him out to be the bad guy.
(I think people are misunderstanding your comment as being literal, not quoting what they’re saying. Thank you, for the answer.)
You’re welcome and I probably could have worded that better but yes, I was quoting them.
The funny part is: the authorities warned him a long time ago, for example 2023 {https://www.fr.de/politik/verfassungsschutz-maximilian-krah-afd-sorgen-verfassungsschutz-china-kontakte-tbl-zr-92575131.html) and the warnings go back as far as 2019.
It’s the same pearl-clutching isolationism that the GOP, Tory, AfD, Likud and many other political entities of many other countries have. It’s a popular outlook on life for ignorant, gullible people. Fascism will never die, that’s why we as a species should never stop fighting against it.
The best patriots are those, that are willing to sell their country to China/Russia! Heck yeah, love it! (Fucking dumbasses)
This is the best summary I could come up with:
BRUSSELS — Belgian and German police on Tuesday conducted searches at the European Parliament offices of a far-right MEP and his aide as part of an investigation into suspected Chinese espionage.
German authorities said the Federal Prosecutor’s office had requested to search the offices of MEP Maximilian Krah, top candidate for next month’s EU election from the far-right Alternative for Germany party (AfD), and his aide Jian G., who is suspected of “of secret service agent activity.”
German police arrested the aide in April, rocking the AfD while it polls in second place nationally.
A spokesperson from the Belgian prosecutor’s office confirmed it had received a legal assistance request from its German counterpart and is cooperating with them on the case.
