Germany to Hold Migration Talks After Stabbing

Germany's CDU/CSU opposition bloc will engage in further migration talks with Chancellor Olaf Scholz's government following a recent violent incident that has heightened public concern over migration policy. The CDU/CSU has made it clear that it will only participate if the government agrees to expand border controls and reject undocumented migrants. Interior Minister Nancy Faeser announced plans for temporary border controls starting September 16, aiming to reduce illegal entries. Scholz emphasized the importance of collaboration between the ruling coalition and opposition to find common ground, with discussions expected to take place soon. This initiative comes as both sides seek to address migration issues ahead of upcoming state elections in Brandenburg, where voters are particularly concerned about the subject. Meanwhile, President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has called for compromise among political leaders to reach a consensus on migration policy.
