We must get rid of problematic people. This is the reaction of the Christian Democrat candidate for Chancellor of Germany, Friedrich Merz. His reaction comes after the tragedy in Magdeburg.
Merz called for tougher action against perpetrators of non-European descent. "We are simply not consistent enough in dealing with the enemies of our democracy. We tolerate many people in Germany who do not want to integrate", writes the leader of the CDU in his public reaction.
Merz urged that deportations should also be possible if no criminal offenses are identified. The author in Magdeburg appeared to be a particularly aggressive opponent of Islam, wrote Merz, who had previously noted the dangers of political Islamism.
"But it is quite clear that conflicts are taking place on German soil with this author, who does not fit the previous profile of the author, which we simply cannot tolerate. We have to stop this!” he said.
Merz complained of a general increase in willingness to use violence, including in schools or during football. But the number of serious crimes committed by immigrants is also increasing. "The significantly higher level of foreign crime is publicly documented in detail. "Political Islam in particular is one of the main motives for the crimes committed in Germany," Merz asserted.
According to figures from the Federal Bureau of Criminal Investigation, the percentage of foreign suspects in 2023 was 34.4 percent, if violations of immigration law are not taken into account. However, as a year ago, the percentage of foreigners in the population has also increased.
The Federal Police points out that the number of non-German suspects cannot be simply compared to the number of foreigners living in Germany. Crime statistics also include non-residents, tourists, transients, visitors, cross-border travelers and stationed forces who are not part of the population as suspects. (A2 Televizion)
