Chancellor Olaf Scholz's main challenger in Germany's upcoming election is set to present proposals for a stricter migration policy to parliament on Wednesday. This move is aimed at increasing pressure on the governing parties and has sparked accusations of breaking commitments to avoid aligning with the far right.
The opposition leader has shifted the focus of the campaign to migration following a recent tragic knife attack in Aschaffenburg, Bavaria, by a rejected asylum-seeker, resulting in the deaths of a man and a 2-year-old boy.
