Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the architect of the European migration crisis, has once again criticised the leader of the centre-right CDU party, Friedrich Merz for allowing the right-wing Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party to support his proposals on toughening asylum laws.
Her criticism comes as a new poll shows that the majority of Germans disagree with her, with almost two-thirds of the country’s citizens wanting illegal and undocumented migrants turned back at the border.
