The foreign policy spokesperson for the AfD parliamentary group, Matthias Moosdorf, could lose his post due to his involvement in a music academy in Moscow. In the parliamentary group's foreign policy working group, a majority of MPs voted in favor of replacing him as spokesperson, as confirmed by a parliamentary group spokesperson. Previously, "t-online" had reported.
Moosdorf himself pointed out when asked that this was not a vote to remove him, but rather an opinion poll. Only the parliamentary group can decide to vote out of office with a two-thirds majority. This was also confirmed by the spokesperson.
Whether such a majority will be achieved is difficult to estimate, according to information from parliamentary party leaders. According to consistent statements, a decision will probably not be made until the coming week of the session.
