At the CSU party conference in Augsburg, Markus Söder, the party leader, emphasized a firm stance against forming a coalition with the Greens, highlighting a unified front with CDU leader Friedrich Merz.
Söder promised full support for Merz, aiming to replace Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
The CSU proposed a significant reform in migration policy, advocating for a cap of 100,000 asylum applications per year, citing the strain of uncontrolled immigration on Germany.
The party also called for stricter deportation measures and enhanced border controls.
This conference marks the beginning of the CSU's campaign for the upcoming federal elections, with a focus on challenging the current government coalition.
