The leader of Germany, Olaf Scholz, spoke out against a meeting where they talked about sending millions of people out of the country because of their extreme political views.
The news in Germany reported that some politicians from the far-right AfD and neo-Nazis had a meeting at a fancy house near a lake outside Berlin.
The government talked about sending away people who aren’t German, even if they’re citizens.
Mr Scholz said nobody should be treated unfairly because of where they come from in Germany.
The Correctiv investigative outlet said that around 20 people went to a secret meeting near Potsdam, outside Berlin, in November.
Correctiv said that some important people from the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) were involved, including Roland Hartwig, who is a close friend of party leader Alice Weidel.
Neo-Nazis from Germany and Austria, and at least one member of the white supremacist Generation Identity group, went to the event.
Two people from the centre-right Christian Democrats (CDU) party also took part.
A German politician was arrested after someone complained about them using a Nazi slogan.
Germany’s far-right AfD party won the first city mayor election.
Many people talked about “remigration,” which means sending people with non-German backgrounds out of Germany, even if they are citizens.
Correctiv said that people didn’t disagree with the plan in general, they just had concerns about whether it could actually work.
The AfD officially doesn’t support the idea of sending people back to their home countries. Gerrit Huy, a member of the German Parliament from the AfD, said she has believed in the idea “for years”.
She said the AfD no longer opposed dual citizenship because it would make it easier to take away a migrant’s German citizenship if they had another one.
The party told the AFP news agency that Mr Hartwig went to the conference, but said it would not change its migration policy.
Chancellor Scholz said on X (formerly Twitter): “We won’t let anyone treat people differently in our country because they are immigrants or not. ”
He warned people going to the meeting that some of them might be looked into by the domestic intelligence agency.
We can’t just say we learn from history, we have to really mean it.
Last year, a new member of the AfD party in Bavarian Parliament was arrested by police for making Nazi gestures.
The far-right party is now the second most popular in Germany, after the CDU.
