Municipalities Demand Task Force for More Deportations

The Association of Towns and Municipalities is calling for a 'Task Force' of the Federal Government to increase deportations. The police union is open to border rejections, but only with legal certainty.

CDU leader Merz makes rejections a condition for further talks, while the traffic light coalition has already tightened migration law several times and presented a security package after the knife attack in Solingen. Municipalities demand more involvement in migration consultations, and are pushing for a 'Task Force' for faster deportations.

The debate over stricter asylum rules continues, with calls for a 'Task Force' from the federal government. The Städte- und Gemeindebund emphasizes the need for a 'Task Force' and supports measures to limit irregular migration and improve security.

The association criticizes the exclusion of municipalities from discussions between the government, opposition, and states. The German borders are being controlled until the European asylum reform is implemented.

Brandenburg's Minister-President Woidke meets with local government representatives to discuss migration and security. The FDP leader Lindner is open to a significant reduction in asylum applications, while Söder calls for a clear limitation.

The government plans a security package after the Solingen attack. The municipalities and police also call for deportations and border rejections.

The CDU's Merz sets conditions for meetings with the government, and Scholz is open to border rejections. The CSU and FDP demand a drastic reduction in asylum applications.

The debate on immigration policy continues, with talks between the Ampel coalition, the Union, and the states. However, closing German borders comes with a high price and legal implications.
