Citizens Call for Change in Asylum and Refugee Policy
A recent survey shows that 77% of Germans want a fundamentally different asylum and refugee policy to reduce immigration. This sentiment is particularly strong among supporters of the AfD, BSW, and CDU/CSU, while SPD supporters are divided and Green supporters have mixed views.
In addition to migration and flight, other important issues for citizens include the economy, social injustice, environmental and climate protection, education, and internal security. When it comes to combating crime and asylum and refugee policy, citizens see the most competence in the Union.
The study also reveals that a majority of Germans still feel safe in public spaces after the Solingen attack, but the number of people feeling unsafe has increased. The rise of the AfD has led many people, particularly those with a migration background, to consider leaving their state or even emigrating.
The DIW president warns of the economic consequences for East Germany and calls for investments in education and infrastructure. FDP leader Lindner expresses openness to border rejections, criticizes the Greens, and warns that all parties could lose if they fail to offer a solution to migration.
The FDP also calls for more return and expulsion of refugees, while the CDU/CSU wants permanent border controls.
