Germany Bans Nationalists from Leaving the Country
The scandal is real, and the silence from Sweden and the EU speaks volumes.
What’s happening right now in the Federal Republic of Germany is nothing short of a democratic disgrace. A group of dissident activists—whose only “crime” was their intent to attend a peaceful conference on remigration in Milan—have been barred from leaving the country. They’ve been ordered to report to local police twice a day and face fines if they disobey. Their freedom of movement within the Schengen Area has been erased with the stroke of a bureaucrat’s pen. Why? Because they hold the “wrong” opinions.
And no, this isn’t happening in Belarus, Russia, or China. This is Germany—Europe’s economic and political engine. The country that never misses a chance to play moral policeman, lecturing others on “liberal values,” “human rights,” and “the rule of law.”
Yet where are the condemnations? Not from the Swedish government. Not from the European Commission. Not from the usual chorus of voices who scream about restrictions on LGBT rights in Poland or "anti-Soros rhetoric" in Hungary. When Germany imposes effective travel bans on political dissidents—there is silence.




The Real Reason
The official letters sent to the affected individuals make the true reason clear: the German state is afraid of embarrassment. Authorities worry that the country’s international reputation might suffer if Germans with the “wrong” views attend a public event where remigration is discussed. And so, in their own words, they find it “proportionate” to prevent these citizens from traveling to Italy, Austria, or Switzerland.
Let’s be clear: this isn’t about a threat of violence. It’s not about any illegal actions. It’s about people who were invited to a conference to share ideas with scholars, authors, and commentators from across Europe. For this, they are being locked inside their own country.
This is the logic of tyranny: the state now claims the right to stop its citizens from leaving the country—not based on what they’ve done, but on what they might think. Not because of what they will do, but because their presence could be perceived as politically damaging.
A Soft Dictatorship
Let’s call this what it is: a soft dictatorship. A system where opposition isn’t officially banned, but is ruthlessly suppressed in practice. Where books aren’t burned, but authors are purged from platforms. Where dissidents aren’t jailed indefinitely—but are banned from banking, lose their jobs, or, as in this case, are forbidden from traveling.
It’s totalitarianism with a smile. And it’s precisely the kind of regime that every true advocate of freedom should fear. Which is why it’s so telling that the self-proclaimed champions of democracy—in both Germany and Sweden—are completely silent.
When Poland reforms its judiciary, the entire EU machine goes into hysterics. When Hungary limits foreign NGO funding, the European Parliament practically explodes. But when Germany locks in its dissidents? Then suddenly it’s understandable.
The double standard is staggering.
Where Is Sweden?
So, where is the Swedish government? What does our foreign minister have to say? Will anyone from the Moderates, Christian Democrats, or Liberals demand that Germany respect its citizens’ rights to free speech and free movement?
Or are they, too, too cowardly, too comfortable—or simply too ideologically aligned with the German regime?
The truth is that the entire European establishment protects its own. What’s happening in Germany isn’t an exception—it’s the test run for what’s coming across the EU. Next time, it could be Sweden. Or France. Or Belgium. Anyone with the “wrong” views can and will be targeted.
It starts with public denunciations. Then come the frozen bank accounts. Then event bans. And finally—like now—travel bans. Democracy is stripped away layer by layer, until nothing remains but a shell: elections that mean nothing, media that never questions power, and a population trained to stay quiet.
The Tipping Point
In Sweden, we are already dangerously close. We’ve seen nationalists lose their bank accounts. We’ve seen events cancelled after venue owners are pressured by police and politicians. For now, we can still leave the country to attend international conferences—but for how much longer?
That’s why events like the Remigration Summit in Milan—and the upcoming Awakening Conference in Finland, where I will speak—are so important. They remind us that there is a Europe beyond the EU, beyond the Brussels bureaucracy and technocratic nanny-state. A Europe that remembers who we are. A Europe that knows the nation, the family, and the people are not stains to be erased—but pillars on which to rebuild.
And that is precisely what terrifies the German regime. Not violence. Not chaos. But ideas. Visions. Dreams of a future that cannot be bent to fit into their social engineering experiment.
We in Sweden must make our position clear. We don’t need grand gestures or public spectacles—but we do need to speak out. Our politicians, our media, and our citizens must say: this is not acceptable.
Because if we stay silent now, we’ll have nothing to say when our own freedoms are taken away. We’ll stand there, stunned, asking how it went so far.
It went that far because no one spoke up.

A wonderful article. Thank you - hadn't heard about this except through you.
*Democracy is not synonymous with liberty or sovereignty. A major part of the reason why this type of thing is even happening in Germany, is due the misunderstanding that democracy is a magical word that means something magical it does not mean. To paraphrase: "In theory the people decide, but the internationalist (a supra nationalist state, in fact - nationalist to its core) is behind it all."
Political prisoners may be be banned from travel and other dangerous undertakings of those who express wrong thoughts and opinions and ideas, and this may be perfectly in-line with the "democracy" of a particular place. A majority of people who do not belong to a nation, as well as many of those who do belong to a nation, given voting privileges, can vote in people who like Bolshevism, promote Bolshevism, and enact Bolshevism. That's democracy.
When we speak of our rights being removed by force or threat of force, we should speak of removal of liberty and sovereignty. It is not necessarily that democracy is failing. It's doing what democracy does - which is reflect those who make up the democratic body.
