The recent decision by Germany's Federal Administrative Court to temporarily lift the ban on the far-right "Compact" magazine has sparked significant political debate.
Interior Minister Nancy Faeser, who initially imposed the ban citing the magazine as a central voice for right-wing extremism, faces criticism from various political factions, including the FDP and AfD.
The court's ruling questioned the proportionality of the ban, allowing the magazine to resume publication under certain conditions until a final decision is made.
Jürgen Elsässer, the magazine's editor, celebrated the ruling as a victory and plans to distribute the latest issue at an AfD event.
Faeser defends her actions, emphasizing the importance of using legal tools to protect democracy, despite the setback.
The situation highlights ongoing tensions in Germany over media freedom and the fight against extremism.
