Germany moves to block far-right AfD from classified NATO war plans amid pro-Russia stance

The German federal government plans to restrict the far-right AfD's access to classified intelligence, specifically the 'Eagle' plan for responding to a Russian attack on Eastern Europe, due to the party's pro-Russian views and surging support. The NYT reports military concerns that AfD state governments could leak the plan. This marks an unprecedented step to protect military secrets from a major political party, reflecting heightened internal security risks as the party gains power.
