Bjoern Hoecke领导的极右AfD党在德国图林根获得了30%的支持, Far-right AfD party, led by Bjoern Hoecke, gains 30% support in Thuringia, Germany, despite inflammatory rhetoric.
德国东部城市索恩贝格的极右翼政客Bjoern Hoecke获得支持, Far-right politician Bjoern Hoecke, head of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Thuringia, has drawn support in the eastern German town of Sonneberg, despite his inflammatory Nazi rhetoric. 在9月关键的地区选举之前，AfD目前在该地区的民意调查支持率约为30%，在图林根州领先，这是纳粹党在1930年上台的第一个州。 AfD is currently polling at around 30% in the region ahead of the key regional election in September, leading in Thuringia, which was the first state where the Nazi party came to power in 1930. 霍克在移民问题上的言论以及他承诺如果当选将驱逐非法移民，引起了支持者的热情。 Hoecke's rhetoric on immigration and his promise to deport illegal immigrants if elected have garnered enthusiasm from supporters. 然而,批评者认为,AfD在Sonneberg的成功导致了该镇极右暴力的增加。 However, critics argue that the AfD's success in Sonneberg has led to an increase in far-right violence in the town.
