A relative of an executed opponent of the Nazis tried to remove a wreath from the far-right Alternative for Germany party at an event in Berlin marking the 82nd anniversary of a failed attempt to kill Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. AfD’s parliamentary group confirmed that it had provided a wreath for the memorial event, but it was not clear whether any of its members were present, dpa reported. Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg tried to kill Hitler with a briefcase bomb on July 20, 1944, during a meeting at the dictator’s headquarters in what was then the German region of East Prussia. Von Stauffenberg and his fellow plotters were executed within hours. A grandson of Stauffenberg, Karl von Stauffenberg, told Welt television that AfD was trying to exploit his grandfather’s memory, but the party should not be prevented from laying a wreath.
