The left-wing parties in the Saxon state parliament have accused the Ministry of the Interior of failing to take action against right-wing meeting places. MP Juliane Nagel spoke of a "zero buck against the right" attitude in the ministry. Interior Minister Armin Schuster (CDU), on the other hand, had repeatedly emphasized that right-wing extremism is the main focus. "This remains our most important playing field." Fine adjustments need to be made here. "We are dealing with activists who are much younger than their predecessors. This is a new challenge for the security authorities and intelligence services," he recently told the German Press Agency. Nagel had submitted a minor question to the state parliament on the subject. "The right-wing scene continues to have numerous meeting places and properties at its disposal in Saxony," she said in an analysis of the answer to the question. According to this, a total of 35 meeting points were classified as "properties used by right-wing extremists" in 2025. In 2024, there were 36, which was a high at the time. "Currently, only the district of North Saxony is a white spot for the brown people - at least according to the public data," emphasized the MP. However, the Ministry of the Interior was unable to provide further information for reasons of confidentiality and data protection. Therefore, not all locations were named. "Right-wing extremists have basic access to 21 of these properties", i.e. they have a key or are even the owners. Other properties are rented on an ad hoc basis and one property is even publicly owned," the MP said. According to Nagel, access to real estate has been a central strategy of the far right for years in order to consolidate and expand structures. "In view of the minimal fluctuation, I cannot for the life of me see any targeted action by the authorities. Only three properties have been banned from use, but they are not even new." The necessary pressure against the right-wing scene is being abandoned without necessity. Copyright 2026, dpa (www.dpa.de).
