Headline: German Far-Right Celebrates 'Historic' Electoral Triumph in the East

Caption:

Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has scored a significant win in Thuringia securing almost a third of the vote and surpassing the conservative CDU by nine points. This marks the first state parliament election victory for the far-right since World War Two. However, the AfD is unlikely to form a government as other parties refuse to collaborate with them.
