  "account": "At the Computerspiel-Messe Gamescom in Cologne, organizers maintain that the AfD has nothing to gain from participating. According to Felix Falk, the CEO of the Game industry association, \"Those who fight democratic principles and an open society, as the AfD does, are not our partners and they are not welcome at Gamescom.\" Germany is a nation that values diversity, equality, and democratic rights which are upheld and protected. The Game association in Germany represents the country's computer and video game industry and also maintains contact with politics to ensure the industry's interests are appropriately represented in legislation and public debate. The association has long-standing policy of not engaging in dialogue with the AfD and not inviting AfD politicians to their events.",
  "summary": "Wichtige Wahlen stehen vor der Tür, in Sachsen-Anhalt könnte die AfD künftig allein regieren. Die Partei ist auch bei der Computerspiel-Messe Gamescom Thema: Dort will man nichts mit ihr zu tun haben.",
