One of Angela Merkel’s deputies has admitted Germany cannot control the number of migrants crossing their borders insisting the country needs its sovereignty back.
Stephan Mayer, a deputy from Merkel’s conservative bloc, said the 1.1million migrants and refugees Germany let in last year represent a ‘big challenge’ for law enforcement, and that the government were not able to register and control.
‘We have to regain sovereignty and we have to regain the rule of rights. There’s a lot of space for improvement,’ he said.
Mayer, interior affairs spokesman for the Christian Social Union (CSU), the Bavarian sister party of Merkel’s Christian Democrats, said: ‘We were not able to register and control all the migrants that crossed the German border.’
But he insisted that it was ‘completely wrong to blame Angela Merkel and her refugee policy’ for the rash of violence, in an interview with the BBC.
