In an approving tone, Merz said the number of refugees fleeing to Germany had fallen since he took office in May, “but we still have this problem in the cityscape, and that is why the interior minister is working to carry out large-scale deportations.”

    racist deportation comment

    He does these on a yearly basis at least and gets away with it every time. Don‘t hold your breath.
