Germany's parliament is set to vote on an opposition bill aimed at tightening migration rules, potentially marking the first legislation to pass with the support of a far-right party. The bill, spearheaded by opposition leader Friedrich Merz, emphasizes a more restrictive approach to migration following a recent deadly knife attack by a rejected asylum-seeker.
Merz's focus on migration policies has raised concerns among critics about his stance towards the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Despite facing protests and accusations, Merz maintains that he does not intend to collaborate with AfD.
