Questions raised in Germany whether Chancellor Merkel is losing touch with ordinary Germans with her statements on immigration. Merkel was critical of the Dresden protests on immigration saying the protestors had "prejudice, coldness, and even hatred in their hearts." This will present a new challenge to Merkel in 2015 as more ordinary Europeans question whether openness in immigration policies have gone too far.

Challenges Chancellor Merkel faces in Germany on immigration and Greece's position in the eurozone in 2015

12/31/2014

In the tenth year of the Merkel administration questions are raised about whether her position on immigration is out of touch with ordinary Germans. Her New Years Eve message included a reference to the Dresden marches on immigration saying that these people had "prejudice, coldness, and even hatred in their hearts." Immigration and paying the cost of integrating immigrants was one of the issues in 2014 Swedish elections, and is an issue today in the UK and France. The terrorist attack in France by radical Muslims has created new tensions in 2015.
