💨 Abstract

Friedrich Merz, leader of Germany's CDU/CSU conservative bloc, is set to propose migration restrictions plans on Wednesday that may pass with the AfD's support, potentially breaking a taboo on cooperation with the far-right. Merz aims to seize the initiative on migration policy after recent deadly stabbings by an asylum seeker. His proposals, including border closures, have been criticized for being incompatible with European law.
