The German Interior Minister, Horst Seehofer, has today decided to ban the ultra-right Nordadler organization, as published in the Public Journal in its digital edition. “Far-right and anti-Semitism have no place in our society. Neither in the real world nor in the virtual world,” Seehofer said in a statement.

The prohibition order comes after the registers carried out in parallel by North Rhineland-Westphalia, Lower Saxony and the Federal States of Brandenburg and Saxony. Ministry spokesman Steve Alter announced on Twitter that "police measures are being taken this morning in four Länder". Far-right and anti-Semitism have no place on the Internet."

The organization uses different names to spread its ideology through social networks: The terms "Völkische Revolution", "Völkische Jugend", "Völkische Gememeinschaft" and "Völkische Reinairement", i.e. "revolution", "youth", "community" and "resurrection", tend to relate to the word völkisch. Although this meaning derives from the literature of romanticism, it is the concept used by the Nazis to define the so-called “ethnic ethnicity” and the citizens of the Nazi State.

They are entrusted with followers of Adolf Hitler and other figures of the third Reich, and they use the same symbolism and language as Nazism. The group had a marked anti-Semitic profile and came to propose a Nazi urbanization project with several followers in the rural environment.

The head of Nordadler also praised the attack on a synagogue perpetrated last October in Halle by a German on an open team of the Telegram courier service. The fascist assailant attempted to enter the temple and, after failing in the attempt, killed two people on the street and in a city restaurant.

According to the NTV network, the group is relatively new, as it started its activity three years ago. The Prosecutor's Office has been investigating for two years. The ban on this group is the 20th measure launched by the German Ministry of the Interior against the ultra-right and the third in 2020.

In January, the ministry also banned members of the neo-Nazi group "Combat 18", a group to which it belongs. In March, the Geeinte deutsche Völker und Stämme (United Peoples and Tribes of Germany). The latter is related to the circles called Reichsburger (Reich citizens), an ultra-right uprising movement that does not recognise the sovereignty of the present Germany.
