AfD rose in Germany after Merkel allowed unlimited immigration in 2015. The CDU fell from 43% to something like 25% now. You could say that Putin destabilizes the West by periodically starting wars that result in millions of immigrants. I'd also consider the possibility of Russia sponsoring left culture warriors, who are much more effective in destabilizing the West than fringe parties like the AfD. Rumor has it that Putin was the KGB contact to the leftist RAF in East Germany. Also consider that the largest leftist riots in West Germany were started by a Stasi operative working as a West German police officer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl-Heinz_Kurras https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl-Heinz_Kurras
