Elon Musk-backed far-right AfD scores historic German election win as African migrants fear what comes next

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has achieved significant gains in recent German elections, marking a notable shift in the country's political landscape. This electoral performance has sparked concern among various communities, particularly African migrants, who fear potential policy changes and their impact on integration and social cohesion.

The AfD's rise is often attributed to its platform, which emphasizes stricter immigration controls, nationalistic policies, and skepticism towards certain European Union initiatives. While the party's electoral success reflects a segment of public opinion, its policy proposals regarding immigration and asylum have drawn criticism and raised questions about Germany's commitment to its established refugee protection and integration programs. The involvement of prominent figures like Elon Musk, though often indirect through public statements or social media, has amplified attention on the AfD's growing influence.
