Mathias Brodkorb

Mathias Brodkorb is a German politician and former member of the Social Democratic Party (SPD), who previously served as the Minister of Culture and Finance in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. He gained recent attention for his comments regarding the secrecy of a report by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, which assessed the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as 'securely right-extremist.' Brodkorb highlighted the need for transparency in the publication of the report, arguing that it contained no relevant intelligence sources warranting protection.
