On Saturday, Fans of Energie Cottbus have unfurled a commemorative banner for Haller. How close are the right Fans of Chemnitz, and Cottbus are connected?

There are good Links between right-wing extremist Hooligans in both cities.

How did the extreme right-wing spectrum in Chemnitz after the riots last summer?

The events have shown the scene, which is under favourable conditions possible for you. Since then, trying to gain the mobilised people through other events permanently for the scene. Since the events of the end and the beginning of September, 2018, the scene is strengthened, and is already planning the next events, such as the day of German future‘ in June in Chemnitz.

In which dimensions are in Chemnitz and Saxony, a total right-wing extremists and Hooligans interwoven?

Because of Social media, it is today much easier to connect the different areas of the company. This is also right-wing extremists, to be the pretence, normal football fans, no problems recording in Fan chat groups and Fan distributor. There you advertise for your positions and try to win the other football fans as the mobilization potential.

The right-wing extremist hooligan scene is networked with each other. In addition, there are new areas in the right-wing extremist scene, as national networks of Muslims and xenophobic right-wing extremists, the actors themselves part of the Hoolszene come from and Hooligans actively for their anti-asylum events appeal. This happened in August/September 2018 in Chemnitz, but also on other occasions such as the "Merkel way must-demonstrations" in Berlin. This is facilitated by the General political processes in the subkulturell-influenced right-wing extremist scene since 2015. Therefore, it also came out of this scene to radicalisation processes, in which Hooligans were involved.

Why the protection of the Constitution at the end of 2018 ,the citizens ' movement Pro Chemnitz‘ as an observation object classified?

There is actual evidence for the objective and purpose are Pro Chemnitz - oriented behavior, the substantial Protection of the free democratic basic order of combat. For this purpose, in particular, the guarantee of human dignity, the right to physical integrity, the principle of equality, the separation of powers and the monopoly of violence of the state as an essential condition for a peaceful human coexistence.

members of the Pro Chemnitz have spread since the homicide in Chemnitz at the end of August, apparent right-wing extremist content. In this case justify right-wing extremist Propaganda and violence, and try and since then, this as legitimate.

The main protagonists of Pro Chemnitz are themselves deeply rooted in right-wing extremist scene, and partly there are already long-standing and active. You, supported by, among other things, long-standing Holocaust denier. In addition, they were involved in the Organisation of one of the nationally most significant right-wing extremist combat sports events in the year 2018, the tournament "Tiwaz" in June in Grünhain-Beierfeld.

Clearly the intention of the leaders of the Pro Chemitz, under the guise of a critique of asylum policy is to wear the right extremist movements in large parts of the society.

What is the importance of martial arts for the right-wing scene in Chemnitz and Saxony?

The importance of combat sport events has increased significantly in recent years. In 2018, these events in Saxony belonged to the mobilization of the strongest scene of events. Martial arts serves several needs of the scene: 1. The sense of community in a sport community. 2. The "master race cult" through the Training of one's own body in the sense of the steel Cried Ideal. 3. The maintenance of the "military thought" by preparation for physical confrontations. 4. the "experience" in a "sporting event".

combat sports can strengthen the scene, its internal cohesion and the preparation for physical confrontations also their ability to increase.

How to right support of extreme martial artists from Eastern Europe, the scene in Saxony?

are you involved in the Organisation and offer their own distributors is also the possibility, with appropriate Propaganda, but also with Training equipment.

neo-Nazis, Hooligans, martial artists, extreme-right music fans and rockers – for as dangerous to the constitutional protection of the mixing scene?

The gathering of extremist Belief with impulsive violence, and it calls the attention of the security authorities. This is especially true if globally networked law, this mixed scene to mobilize extremist actors targeted for confrontational events, such as in the late summer of 2018 in the demonstrations and riots in Chemnitz.

How could the risk, and to mitigate that in Saxony a Milieu trained by extreme right-wing street fighters grow up to be?
