Scandal around Merz: Führer comment is shocked by the CDU and the southern German!

Aschaffenburg, Deutschland - An editor of the Süddeutsche Zeitung caused a sensation with his statement about CDU boss Friedrich Merz by posting him near Nazi slot. On his private account, the journalist published the sentence: "The leader spoke", followed by another provocative post that quoted the CDU general secretary Carsten Linnemann with "Sieg Heil, dear @cdu". Merz reacted indignantly to the statements and described them as "derailment" and "completely unacceptable", while the Süddeutsche Zeitung decidedly distanced itself from the statements.

The editors' posts were related to a push of the Union to tighten migration policy. Against the background of a fatal knife attack in Aschaffenburg, in which a police -famous refugee from Afghanistan is suspect, the Union plans to coordinate requests for migration policy in the Bundestag. This development asked both the SPD and the Greens critical reactions that Merz accused of wanting to accept AfD votes. Regardless of this allegations, the Union strives for a clear delimitation from the AfD in one of its applications.

merz 'plans for migration and security policy

Friedrich Merz, the CDU Chancellor candidate, has now announced concrete changes in migration and security policy before the federal election. These announcements come one month before the election and aim to react to the public discussion after the knife attack. According to Tagesschau , Merz calls on the SPD and Greens to support his applications while excluding a coalition with the AfD. In the upcoming plenary week, two application designs are to be introduced:

• a five -point plan "for safe limits and the end of illegal migration".
• an application "for a change of policy in internal security" with 27 immediate measures.

Both proposals are designed as proposals and could not cause immediate changes in the law. However, experts express concerns about the legal compatibility of the proposals, since Chancellor Olaf Scholz has already announced a government declaration on the consequences of the knife attack. Merz criticizes Scholz 'reaction as inadequate and urges specific decisions.

Details about the applications

The five-point plan provides for the following measures:

• permanent border controls to neighboring countries.
• Entry ban for people without valid documents.
• detention persons.
• daily deportations, also to Afghanistan and Syria.
• Support for the countries in the execution of the obligation to leave.

Topics such as video surveillance with facial recognition, strengthening the security authorities and the tightening of penalties for assault are also part of the application for internal security. However, approval in the Bundestag for the applications seems unlikely. Rather, the FDP boss Christian Lindner calls for another course in migration policy and reflects the splitting opinion of the AfD about Merz 'suggestions.
