World leaders, lawmakers, senior defense figures and other officials will attend the Munich Security Conference, which takes place from February 14 to 16 and has been held since 1963. But not invited are Alternative for Germany (AfD) and the populist Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), according to conference chairman Christoph Heusgen.

Musk's support for AfD has helped what was once a fringe political party enter the mainstream, lifting it up in front of a global audience.

Elon Musk told a rally the German far-right AfD party, just before Holocaust Remembrance Day, that Germany should get over "past guilt."
