Merz renews ultimatum to Scholz before second migration meeting
CDU leader Friedrich Merz has renewed his ultimatum to Chancellor Olaf Scholz ahead of the second round of migration talks, demanding clarity on the government's position. The Union and FDP have called for stricter migration policies, including increased border rejections.
Merz stated that these measures must be implemented immediately and comprehensively to ensure Union participation in the meeting. The first round of talks on Tuesday did not yield any decisions, but was deemed constructive.
The FDP also proposed tougher asylum and migration policies, while the Greens expressed opposition to permanent border controls. The Green Youth called for an end to the talks with the Union, citing concerns over unilateral decisions.
Liberal Party Secretary-General Bijan Djir-Sarai demanded that the Greens support stricter migration measures or step out of government.
