Chancellor Merz has ordered the tightening of Germany’s borders. It’s not going over well with former Chancellor Angela Merkel, the architect of their open borders.
Merkel let everyone and anyone into Germany.
“For ten years, anybody at all could enter Germany. All he had to do was claim asylum at our borders, and if he was smart, he would also make himself almost impossible to deport by destroying his identification documents,” writes Eugyppius.
Tighter national migration and border control policies could lead to the destruction of the EU, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel has warned, following Berlin’s recent move to curb the influx of asylum seekers.

Merkel made the remarks at the Southwestern Press Forum in Neu-Ulm last week, where she appeared to present her memoir, ‘Freedom’.
“I do not believe we can decisively combat illegal migration at the German-Austrian or German-Polish border… I have always advocated European solutions,” Merkel said when asked about the latest measures adopted by Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s cabinet.
The new policies, introduced earlier this month by Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt, prohibit asylum applications at all German land borders. It reverses Merkel’s 2015 open-border policy. Exceptions are made for children, pregnant women, and other vulnerable individuals.
According to Merkel, the move threatens both freedom of movement within the EU and the integrity of the Schengen zone, which allows visa-free travel across most of the bloc. She wants the authoritarian EU, an alleged trade organization to make those decisions.
“Otherwise, we could see Europe destroyed,” she warned.
She already did that – ruined Germany. Merkel has also done serious harm to the US. It was Merkel who insisted we call of the invaders “migrants.” Merkel helped kill any chance at peace with Russia. She conspired with Francois Hollande to agree to the fake Minsk II treaty, knowing they never intended to go through with it. She mocked Russia for believing it last year. It was a ruse to give Ukraine time to build an army.
Now, German media is trying to say Merkel didn’t open the borders. It’s exactly what they tell us here about Democrats – they didn’t open the borders. The borders are secure! It’s the same playbook to destroy the West and replace it with something much worse.
As for Germany, they’re afraid of the AfD beating the authoritarians in the next election.
Tighter borders. More police. Stricter controls.
Germany’s new government is cracking down on migration — even refusing entry to some asylum seekers.

Were the other comments waiting for approval like mine are? If so, let me know and I’ll take my comments elsewhere. Second time today.
The German people are super sensitive ever since WW2 and their treatment of Jews. They do not want to appear in any way of not liking minorities. The globalists know this and that’s why they pick on Germany to push their illegal immigration as the German people just sit there and take it.
I wish they’d get over it.
They won’t. Guilt and shame keeps it going.
That’s going to be their undoing.
“I do not believe we can decisively combat illegal migration at the German-Austrian or German-Polish border”
Really? Are you just dumb or ignorant? Pretty sure you can if you actually enforce laws, starting at the border….
Merkel is a PAID saboteur, and has likely padded her Swiss bank accounts a great deal by opening the German country to Middle Eastern terrorists. What these traitors fail to realize is that they too will have to live in the mess they’ve created.
Merkel is a globalist saboteur, and always was. The Germans I knew were docile about the invasion she organized, or would not talk about it. Her “European solution” is the 4th reich, a totalitarian super state. There will not be a more overt effort to sabotage Germany than what has happened the past 35 years, and since most Germans cannot see it, maybe their nation does need to end. How about this Merz, he only stops the invasion when threatened with election loss, what a patriot he is.
