the alternative for germany party was founded in 2013 and is regarded as a far-right party by mainstream european public opinion. it entered the german bundestag, the lower house of parliament, for the first time in 2017 and won the local governor election for the first time in 2023, also in thuringia.hecke hopes to become the first afd politician to serve as governor of one of germany's 16 federal states. however, the guardian once said that hecke is notorious in germany, where critics have long accused him of using language that echoes the nazis. some critics even say that he is "one of the most serious threats to germany's postwar democratic system since its establishment."

heck joined the alternative for germany party in 2013 and rose rapidly. in 2014, he was elected to the thuringia state parliament and became one of the party's important figures. the 52-year-old politician was a history teacher. he taught history for 13 years before switching to politics in 2014. reports say that he has long made right-wing extremist remarks. and even though björn heck denies supporting any nazi ideology, his political inclinations have always been traceable. for example, in 2008, heck moved to a village in thuringia, and one of germany's most active neo-nazis, politician thorsten heiss (thorsten heise lived in the neighboring village. there were witnesses who testified that they had interacted with each other.heck himself has not denied that they knew each other. in february 2010, when he was still a teacher, he participated in a neo-nazi march in dresden, germany.
