The President of the Thuringian State Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Stephan Kramer, warns of further radicalization of local right-wing extremists in view of the storm of supporters of US President Donald Trump on the Capitol.
"That must be a warning to us all," said Kramer to the "RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland" (Tuesday).
The unrest is not a distant phenomenon, “we are confronted with it directly.
The pressure in the boiler continues to rise. "
What has shown in the US is "the beginning of home-grown terrorism," said Kramer.
The relevant scene in Germany of right-wing extremists, Reich citizens and conspiracy theorists now feel encouraged that it is "not only possible" to "try something like this with us, it is necessary".
In this context, he warned against further actions such as on the weekend, when supporters of “lateral thinking” marched in front of the private house of the Saxon Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer (CDU).
"We have to adjust to the fact that actionists target politicians themselves," said Kramer.
It is about intimidating decision-makers and showing that the state is not in a position to protect its representatives.
