As the far-right Alternative for Germany gains more power in eastern Germany, companies there find it increasingly hard to attract the skilled foreign workers they desperately need. Ahead of state elections on Sept.

1 in the three eastern states of Thuringia, Saxony and Brandenburg, where the far-right party is leading in the polls, companies say they see the Alternative for Germany as a risk for the region as a place to do business or invest. A view of the city center of Jena, the economy hub of German federal state Thuringia, with the Jenoptik head office center right, photographed from the Landgraf viewing point Monday, Aug. 12, 2024.

Traeger, a Jena native who studied in the U.S., told the AP he hopes that after the election “we will still be as open, free and democratic a country as we are now. That’s what we need in order to move the company forward.”This story, supported by the Pulitzer Center for Crisis Reporting, is part of an ongoing Associated Press series covering threats to democracy in Europe.with experts estimating that the country needs about 400,000 skilled immigrants each year as the workforce ages and shrinks.

Nonetheless, the AfD in an interview with the AP sought to downplay the issue of what it prefers to call “remigration.” More than anything, Gaikwad was shocked when she took her daughter, now 10, to the playground and overheard a little German boy telling her that he was making a body powder for her “so that you will become a normal person again.”
