AI Summary:
Gerald Fleischmann, former spokesperson of Austrian chancellors Sebastian Kurz and Karl Nehammer, has published a new book, Codes of Extremists. His new book explores the techniques and rhetoric of extremists across the political spectrum to understand how extreme ideologies threaten European democracy. In an interview with Euronews, Fleischmann discussed how Germany and Austria could strengthen democracy, the danger of online influencers in spreading extreme ideas. At the same time, I believe it is crucial to strengthen traditional media in Austria, In a Western, liberal society, people consume media in a certain way. In this case, primarily Russia, but also radical movements from the Arab world. The overall aim is to influence a new generation of young people and, through that, destabilise Western democracy. Antisemitism exists in many different forms and affects all three groups. They speak of a global conspiracy, of "globalists," and similar narratives. Another key characteristic is subversion — these actors operate covertly, without people noticing. This book explicitly deals with subversive forces that operate covertly, without people realising it. The goal of the book is to make this transparent — to show: Who are these people? Who is behind them? And what methods do they use to reach our younger generation? The Codes of Extremists by Gerald Fleischmann was released on 1 February 2025.

"It’s been eight days since Kenscoff has been under attack," Mayor Jean Massillon tells The Associated Press. Massillon blames the attack on the Viv Ansanm gang coalition, with gunmen going home to home and indiscriminately opening fire. Many victims are working-class people who tend crops in the foothills of a mountain range. Gang violence has left more than 1 million homeless across Haiti in recent years. On Friday, one police union said the attack on Kenscoff could have been avoided if police had good equipment.

AI Summary:
Friedrich Merz's Union bloc has been leading polls ahead of the Feb. 23 election. But he drew protests after he put a motion to parliament last week calling for Germany to turn back many more migrants at its borders. That was a first that prompted strong criticism from his opponents and a public rebuke from ex-Chancellor Angela Merkel. Merz broke his word not to allow any measures to pass thanks to AfD votes in an outgoing parliament. Chancellor Olaf Scholz has suggested Merz can no longer be trusted not to form a government. "We are being attacked, and there are protests against our policy," Merz says.
