So we can get rid of him?
Can you add translation of the article?
Translated in english: CDU party leader [Friedrich Merz](https://www.spiegel.de/thema/friedrich_merz/) demands a decisive change to German citizenship law. In an interview with the “Welt am Sonntag”, Merz said that “a withdrawal of German citizenship should be possible if we realize that we have made a mistake in the case of persons who are voting in their right.”
Merz referred to the attack of the Magdeburg Christmas market. “To avoid attacks or further crimes, foreign offenders must be expelled at the latest after the second offence,” said the Union chancellor’s candidate. In order to be able to refer to the country’s dual citizens, Merz brought the expatriation into play.
Merz explained the naturalisation of the naturalisation, which was facilitated by the Ampelk coalition, in principle, a problem. The politician said double citizenship becomes “the rule.” »We are bringing additional problems into the country.
# “Never a safe homeland”
The perpetrator of Magdeburg, Taleb Al Abdulmohsen, is a Saudi Arabian citizen. The criterion of the second crime does not apply to him either. The later amok driver had attracted the authorities with threats of force several times, but had not initially implemented them.
With the demand for expatriation, Merz shakes the Basic Law, which stipulates in Article 16, “German citizenship must not be deprived of.” Only a loss of German passport without targeted action by the authorities is possible for dual citizenship on a legal basis – for example, if someone fights for the army of another state or a terrorist organisation without permission.
It is just sad how nowadays the elections race in a country that is considered modern are turning around such topics, these politicians know that the majority wants to hear such a speech full of fear of the “other” . I wish that one day the german election debate would be about facing economical and climatological challenges instead of instauring just fear.
He’d say that he wants to re-open the Gas-chambers again if it gets him votes.
Yes, PLEASE! I hope this is more than just fishing for voters.
The weirdest – or should I say most frightening – thing comes at the end of the article:
> In dem Interview warnte Merz auch vor einer Wahl der rechtspopulistischen AfD – mit einer bemerkenswerten Begründung: »Jede Stimme für die AfD ist im Grunde eine Stimme für mehr Einfluss der linken Parteien«. Wer einen »durchgreifenden und umfassenden Politikwechsel« in Deutschland wolle, dürfe nur die Union wählen.
translation:
> In the interview, Merz also warned against voting for the right-wing populist AfD—with a remarkable justification: “Every vote for the AfD is essentially a vote for more influence of the left-wing parties.” Anyone who wants a “sweeping and comprehensive political change” in Germany must vote only for the Union.
So – revocation is only possible if the person doesn’t become stateless, i.e.: they need to have another/second citizenship. This is a hard rule.
Now guess which party in Germany has been most adamant against allowing dual citizenship for more than two decades…
Only in 2024, dual citizenship was introduced – and guess which party was still against it…
At the same time, not a single word from Merz about the actual, critical issues of Germany (aging infrastructure, defense, transition to renewables, digitization, affordable accommodation (rent), pension and healthcare finances).
And all chances are that this guy and his party will be the winners of the coming election (aside from the Alternative against Germany / AFD).
And unfortunately, we Germans as a whole deserve what we are going to get – in our case, the coming shitshow is by far caused more by general stupidity and cognitive dissonance at work than by Russian or other disinformation (though they do contribute noticeably).
Every second Europeans waste time caring about meaningless non-issues like this is a second we could have used solving actual problems the continent has.
It was the CDU who opened the doors to the vast majority of middle eastern immigration and refugees into Germany and now claim that they have a solution to the problems that this brought? While also blaming the Left?
Shameless, voters are not going to fall for that.
Definitely the most pressing issue that Germany currently faces… Economy is doing so good…
The comment sections really do get more, let’s say interesting, on posts made after midnight.
I should get to bed earlier.
Once again showing what a shit option he’d be for chancellor
There’s basically no difference between them and the far right anymore. Their sister party CSU is already copying old election posters from the literal Nazi party “NPD”.
