   • 2025 July 7, Sophie Tanno, “Aumentan los llamados para prohibir al partido ultraderechista AfD en Alemania, pese a su creciente popularidad”, in CNN en Español‎:

     Esa decisión, que permite a la BfV vigilar al grupo de gran alcance, reavivó los intentos de imponer una prohibición, a pesar de que el partido obtuvo un significativo 20,8 % de los votos en las elecciones nacionales de febrero, el mejor resultado para una fuerza de ultraderecha en Alemania desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial.
