🇩🇪⚡️ — German security agencies are considering restricting access to classified information following strong state election results for the far-right AfD and far-left Left Party, Reuters reports.

Officials are particularly concerned that an AfD-led government in Saxony-Anhalt could expose sensitive intelligence to Russia, while some politicians have raised separate concerns about organized crime information if the Left Party enters government in Berlin.

Both parties reject allegations that they pose such risks.

Security authorities are reportedly preparing options to limit sensitive intelligence sharing while maintaining cooperation on critical issues such as potential terrorist threats.
