CDU backs AfD-supported Stolperstein ban in Heidenau, breaking informal firewall

In Heidenau, Saxony, CDU representatives supported a ban on laying further Stolpersteine, a measure also backed by the AfD. This marks a notable break from the informal 'firewall' against cooperation with the far-right in local politics. The move signals shifting local political dynamics in eastern Germany, though its broader national implications remain uncertain.
