Migration: Traffic light coalition debates border rejections

The traffic light coalition in Germany is embroiled in a dispute over the rejection of migrants at the border. The Greens are criticizing the demands of the Union party, calling on Chancellor Scholz to show more leadership.

The FDP is also sharply criticizing the Greens, with party leader Lindner expressing concern. A survey shows majority support for changes in asylum and refugee policy, particularly among supporters of the AfD, BSW, CDU/CSU, and SPD, but there is also division among Green supporters.

The debate revolves around the issue of border rejections and their legality, with the Union party advocating for limitations on unwanted migration. Experts hope that the EU's asylum reform, which aims to create a unified process and better distribution of migrants between countries, will lead to fewer migrants in German cities in the long term, but it will not be implemented until 2026. Germany is also considering systematically turning away irregular migrants at the border to pressure other EU states to take them back.

Saxony State Election: CDU Wins, AfD in Second; Election Fraud ... Fraud Investigated

The CDU has emerged as the winner of the state election in Saxony, securing 41 seats, while the AfD came in second with 40 seats. However, forming a government may prove difficult as no party is willing to cooperate with the AfD. The BSW secured 11.8% of the vote, the SPD received 7.3%, the Greens received 5.1%, and the Left fell below the 5% threshold. Initial reports of seat distribution were incorrect due to a software error, but the correct figures have since been provided. The voter turnout of 74.4% was the highest ever recorded.
