Merkel defends her refugee policy: not missed!
The former German Chancellor Angela Merkel defended her attitude to the refugee policy from 2015 to 2021 in an urgent speech in Hamburg. "I do not consider the refugee policy to be missed in the past ten years," she said, emphasizing that there are also many challenges to cope with. In particular, the digitization of foreigners and the implementation of duties of departure are central points in which one has to make progress. She brought up this as part of an event of the weekly newspaper “Die Zeit” with 1000 guests, such as krone.at reported .
Another central topic of her speech was the current situation in the German Bundestag. Merkel criticized polarization among the democratic parties and called for a return to a constructive dialogue. Against the background of the upcoming Bundestag election, these arguments are particularly worrying. She also praised the Union Chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz for his attitude not to take advantage of the complexity of the parliamentary situation. However, she accused him of making cooperation with the AfD possible in a vote, which she described as "wrong". Merz had previously striven for a tightening of migration policy, which underlined the critical attitude of Merkel, such as nau.ch reported .
