ZDF studio head issues warning about Lanz. - Voters express discontent towards the chancellor.
ZDF journalist Ulf Röller (60), the head of the special studio in Brussels, cautioned German Chancellor Olaf Scholz (65) during his appearance on Markus Lanz's (55) show about the potential consequences of disappointing voters on the migration crisis.
Röller directly warned Scholz about his strong stance on deportations during the EU elections on June 9 by saying, "The Chancellor's statement, mass deportations: it won't happen!"
Dangerous Anticipation
Röller then addressed Federal Democratic Party (FDP) parliamentary group leader Christian Dürr (47), saying, "You can't deport people in large numbers just to solve domestic issues, since you can't get rid of them!"
"That's why we signed the migration agreement as the first federal government on a larger scale," Dürr tried to justify the coalition government.
Röller countered by saying, "Even the European migration agreement doesn't change anything about that at all. It is dangerous to raise expectations on such a toxic topic, knowing very well that it won't happen!"
Urgent Warning
"I don't understand why people do this," Röller added. "I understand June 9, but you'll get caught up in it; you'll pay a heavy price!"
Dürr attempted to defend himself by stating, "I'm not defending Scholz, but I believe there is a consensus that we need more order."
Röller refused to agree, saying, "If you're honest, you're only thinking about June 9 now! The migration pact won't come into effect until 2026 anyway. The reception centers at the external borders where the fast-track procedures are being carried out don't even exist yet!"
Is Europe Becoming Unmanageable?
Röller's concerning assessment was, "Everyone is focusing on June 9, because there's great fear in Europe, especially from the moderate parties, while the others might be looking forward to a significant move to the right!"
However, Röller continued, "This fear is that you might end up with a dysfunctional parliament at the European level because, at some point, you won't be able to find any more compromises!"
German Social Benefits as an Attraction
Daniel Thym (51), a migration researcher, clarified, "German social benefits are not the motivation for someone in Nigeria to emigrate. But the German reception, which is quite generous, can be an incentive for everyone in Europe to come to Germany."
"A pull factor, as they say," explained Lanz.
Thym emphasized, "The borders in the Balkans have been closed. As a result, people can no longer rely on being able to reach Germany within two or three weeks. Being a country of immigration doesn't mean having open borders!"
