Temporarily stopped
Sellner successfully appealed against entry ban
Martin Sellner, leader of the far-right Identitarian Movement, has achieved a success against his entry ban in Germany. The ban may not be enforced for the time being, according to the Potsdam Administrative Court on Friday.
The reasoning: Sellner's appeal is likely to be successful. Potsdam's justification - a threat to public order and safety - did not meet the requirements for such a serious intervention. According to its own statement, the court examined the official order and came to the conclusion that it was unlawful.
The city of Potsdam can still lodge an appeal against this decision with the Berlin-Brandenburg Higher Administrative Court, meaning that it is not legally binding. Sellner commented on the decision on Friday, saying that he had expected and hoped for this. "Soon I will come back to Germany and will demand remigration and de-Islamization more and louder than ever."

Ban should apply for three years
The background to this is that Sellner spoke about so-called remigration at a meeting of radical right-wingers in a villa in Potsdam in November 2023. By this, the 35-year-old activist means that people with a migration background have to leave the country en masse, even if they have a German passport. The meeting was attended by several AfD members as well as CDU politicians and the conservative Werteunion.
Was already in Germany
After the meeting became known, the state capital of Brandenburg imposed an entry ban at the beginning of the year (see video above). Sellner was banned from entering Germany for three years. This was for reasons of public order and security, it was said.
The right-wing extremist described this as "absurd" and continues to post regularly on his channels about remigration. A few weeks ago, the activist said he traveled to Potsdam unhindered and presented Mayor Mike Schubert (SPD) with a gift basket.
