Addressing the ongoing political turmoil, Dobrindt has accused the Greens of fueling societal polarization by their policies within the coalition government. He alludes to the significant rise in support for anti-immigration party, AfD, in the Bundestag elections.
In response, the federal government plans to institute decisive measures. These include scrapping express citizenship, halting family reunification for certain refugee groups, and ending voluntary resettlement programs where feasible. Dobrindt also intends to enforce deportations to Afghanistan and Syria, and introduce "permanent departure detention" for potential threats and criminals.
