The Bundestagsverwaltung claims that ‘Compact’ violated the Political Parties Act by promoting the AfD through its event series ‘Die blaue Welle rollt,’ despite the party’s explicit request to cease such activities. Chefredakteur Jürgen Elsässer contends that the events were not solely AfD promotions but rather aimed at advocating for a broader political shift, asserting that the magazine will contest the proceedings. This action follows a recent legal victory for ‘Compact,’ which was allowed to continue publication despite prior government restrictions.
