FILE - Germany's Maximilian Krah, of the German far-right Alternative for Germany party, grimaces during a session at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, Tuesday, April 23, 2024. Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany party on Wednesday, May 22, 2024, banned Krah for next month's European election from making any further public campaign appearances and said he would resign from the party's board immediately. The public demotion came after Krah told an Italian newspaper that not all members of the Nazis' elite SS unit, which was involved in major war crimes during World War II, were war criminals.
