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

Electoral posters of the far-right Alternative for Germany, or And, using the slogan"Summer, Sun, Remigration," and depicting a plane dubbed"Deportation Airline" is displayed at a public transport station in the capital of German federal state Thuringia, in Erfurt, Germany, Wednesday, Aug. 14, 2024. In the federal state Thuringia, in former East Germany, the citizens are called to vote for a new state parliament on Sept. 1, 2024.

Thuringia’s cities and villages are plastered with AfD election posters carrying the slogan “summer, sun, remigration,” and the photo of a plane dubbed “deportation airline” that’s meant to fly out all those people that the party and its voters don’t want in Germany.
