The Green Party in Germany is undergoing a significant transformation in its refugee policy, now endorsing stricter border controls and increased deportations. This shift aligns with reforms pushed by Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, aimed at managing asylum seekers at the EU's external borders.
Critics have labeled the new measures as tantamount to detention in border facilities. Former party member Boris Palmer highlights the contradictions in the party's stance, recalling accusations against him in 2021 that echo current government policies.
The Green Youth is leaving the party in response to what they view as a drastic rightward shift. Co-chair Ricarda Lang remains hesitant to acknowledge these departures or the validity of Palmer's critiques.
Amidst this turmoil, discussions about Palmer's potential return to the party have emerged, raising questions about the future unity and ideological direction of the Greens as they navigate this contentious issue.
