Elon Musk is actively involved in German politics, seeking to dismantle barriers that prevent the far-right party, AfD, from gaining governmental power.
Musk is set to host a live interview with chancellor candidate Alice Weidel of the AfD, coinciding with Germany's snap election on Feb. 23.
This interview raises significant concerns among Germany's political leaders
, as it may provide the AfD with the publicity it lacks.
The AfD is currently second in national polls, supported by approximately a fifth of the electorate, with a campaign focusing on anti-establishment sentiment.
Germany's political landscape remains cautious, as no other party collaborates with the AfD due to historical concerns related to its Nazi past.
