Rightward shift is spreading in the CDU: At the moment, Germans’ eyes are fixed on the right-wing populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. But while politicians from all the other parties are shaking their heads in indignation at the AfD and its “inhumane” plans, the government has adopted a series of austerity measures in the area of asylum. These austerity measures bear witness to the fact that Germany, too, has moved somewhat to the right on the issue of migration. However, two parties do not believe that the austerity measures go far enough: the AfD and the CDU.
