Following a deadly knife attack in Solingen that left three dead and eight injured, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has vowed to tighten knife laws and accelerate the deportation of rejected asylum seekers. The suspect, a 26-year-old Syrian man with alleged ties to the Islamic State, had avoided deportation despite a failed asylum application. Scholz characterized the incident as 'terrorism' and promised swift legislative action to prevent such attacks in the future. The attack has intensified debates on Germany's migration policies, with far-right groups demanding stricter controls. Scholz emphasized the need for 'consistent, practical enforcement' of existing laws to ensure public safety.
