On 13 December 1991, the German Bundesamt fuer Verfassungsschutz (BfV security service) announced that it will be transferring 100 personnel from the extreme left to the extreme right department.

According to the BfV in 1991 up to mid-December, 1,150 extreme-right violent incidents have been reported. 790 of these in the former West Germany, (128 in 1990) and 362 in former GDR. Most of the attacks were against minorities and asylum seekers, but a quarter of those in the former GDR were against Soviet military personnel or installations.

Our work is only possible with your support.
