Germany is at a crossroads with its migration policy, as political leaders grapple with the balance between asylum seekers and labor migrants.

Cem Özdemir, a prominent Green Party politician, has called for an honest debate on migration, highlighting the need for a clear distinction between those seeking asylum and those migrating for work.

This comes amid a broader political shift, as the Green Party aims to learn from past electoral defeats by reshaping its security and migration policies.

In Baden-Württemberg, a coalition government has already implemented a new security package focusing on both counter-terrorism and prevention.

The political landscape is further complicated by differing views within the coalition, with some leaders like Markus Söder of the CSU expressing skepticism about the Green Party's policies.

As Germany navigates these challenges, the future of its migration policy remains a pivotal issue.
