End of an era: Pegida says the last appearance in Dresden Adieu!

Dresden, Deutschland - A last rearing up for Pegida: On Sunday, on the Dresden Neumarkt, directly in front of the Frauenkirche, 3,000 to 5,000 participants will be expected. The regulatory office gathers before the last major appearance of the right -wing extremist movement, which has dramatically lost influence in recent years. Pegida boss Lutz Bachmann stated health and financial reasons for the end of the protests in a recent video message and explained that a podcast and contributions to radio and television are planned. This is followed by his condemnation for aid to incitement.

Pegida, founded in 2014 as a "peaceful European against the Islamization of the West", initially experienced up to 25,000 participants in demonstrations. But in recent years the number of supporters has disappeared and the movement has been overtaken by other right -wing extremists, especially the "Free Saxons". Political scientist Hans Vorländer explains that Pegida's topics are now increasingly being taken up by parties such as the AfD and right -wing extremists. The last days of Pegida not only prove the dwindling interest, but also the transition to other extremist movements in Germany. Further information on this topic provides a report on www.lvz.de .
