September decides.
All in the Parliament represented parties are allowed to propose, who will be chosen for you as the owner and Deputy in the national election Committee. The AfD has, of all things, a young man who is attributed to the Identity. It Laubach is Kai – he is, in a sense, the right Hand of the AfD group chief Andreas Kalbitz.

In the Landtag Presidium of the proposal for election, the AfD attracted a contradiction. Their representative should not have told the reported that Laubach is not the Identity and this is the group in writing have declared. The representatives of the other political groups, the Bureau requested that the AfD would need to submit the Declaration.

Laubach was up to 2017 on the Executive Board of the AfD-and-comers “, Young Alternative order”. In 2016, he appeared in a mobilization video to the Identity of their Big Demonstration in Berlin – as one of the two speakers. Under his own name, the label “German garment”, provides the fashion with the ideas of the Identity of the runs. “Get Germany back on the hip”, it says on the website. The Shirts and Hoodies are printed with sayings such as “people” or under the label name “power precision” or the “athletic endurance”.

And a print emerges: the “Reconquista”. The battle concept of Identity. It is a recourse to the Spanish and Portuguese history. Refers to the re-conquest of cultural space and the roll back of Islam. In addition, Laubach at a Party of the Berlin Identity with some Berlin AfD-politician in may at the fraternity house of Gothia in Berlin-Zehlendorf.
the AfD group chief Kalbitz had declared in December of 2017, about his then-new principle speakers, Laubach was for the “Identitarian movement”, otherwise he could not work for the group. According to a decision of the Board of the Federal-AfD cooperation with the extreme right-wing force is not allowed.
“I don’t see that Laubach would be contrary to the” had Kalbitz explained. Laubach was involved only to individual actions. Even if Laubach have at times confessed to the Identity close to, “it would be an aberration, the I am everyone”. Participation in the individual actions of the IB is questionable, foolish, but he’s not Laubach believe that he was an IB member.

However, there is considerable doubt, in the case of the other political groups in the Parliament on the statement of Kalbitz. Because Laubach is not an isolated case. Also another young employee is considered to be the activists of the Identitarian. According to several media reports about the Identity of the personnel in the AfD group has also confirmed Brandenburg’s constitutional protection chief Frank of Nuremberg, recently in the interior Committee of Parliament relevant findings. To be specific evidence on “the involvement of activists of the Identitarian movement in members findings to us from open sources and intelligence approaches,“ said Nürnberger.
In the case of the other groups will now be based on times for the case that the AfD wants to represent a rejection Laubachs as election Committee-Committee member as a victim. The AfD had also been in the election Committee for local elections, but a member of an extreme right-wing group could not be in the land electoral Committee elected.
the protection of the Constitution-the chief Nuremberg had explained in the Committee on internal Affairs, the Identitarian movement was directed, “that the democratic state, a pluralistic society, which rejects parliamentary democracy”. The Identitarians are clearly anti-democratic.
