Germany is at a critical juncture in its migration policy discussions, with Chancellor Olaf Scholz emphasizing the importance of effective border management and openness for economic growth.
Scholz, in recent interviews, highlighted the significant strides made in migration management over the past decade, including border controls and asylum policy reforms.
However, tensions remain with the opposition, led by CDU's Friedrich Merz, who demands stricter border measures.
As talks continue, President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has urged all parties to find common ground, stressing the need for a unified approach to address citizens' concerns.
The government aims to pass a new security law swiftly, addressing issues like terrorism and deportations, while maintaining compliance with European and international laws.
The outcome of these discussions could shape Germany's migration landscape significantly.
