Germany: Critics Of The Government Are Losing Their Bank Accounts
The German Communist Party (DKP) announced earlier this month that several associated bank accounts (including that of the party executive) will be terminated as of December 31, 2025. The reasons for the account termination remain unclear and the act in itself raises more questions than answers. The case has also drawn attention to a trend in Germany that appears to be resurfacing more and more: attacks on the material foundations of actors who criticize the German government, and especially its policies on war.
