German leader Angela Merkel has remained defiant by confirming she will not change her 'open door' policy on migrants despite a crushing defeat in state elections which gave a far-right party big gains.
The Christian Democrats Union (CDU) lost two of the three states voting to other parties. But Merkel's spokesman Steffen Seibert said there will be no change on Mrs Merkel's stance on migration.
While the election has no direct impact on her chancellorship, the regional polls in the southwestern states of Baden-Wuerttemberg and Rhineland-Palatinate as well as Saxony-Anhalt in the east served as a key test ahead of general elections in 2017.
Bavarian governor Horst Seehofer said: 'The central reason (for the losses) is refugee policy - there is no point in talking past it.'
While Sigmar Gabriel, Merkel's vice-chancellor, insisted the CDU would not change their stance on immigration.
Merkel hopes for a deal in which Ankara would be handed up to £3.9billion, EU countries would accept quotas of Syrian refugees from Turkey and all 75million Turkish citizens would be allowed visa-free travel around continental Europe. On Thursday she insisted that imposing a limit on refugee numbers was a ‘short-term pseudo-solution.'
Germany’s AfD – Alternativ für Deutschland – started out at as an anti–EU, anti–euro party sceptical of the power of Brussels, with the intention of ending bailouts for poor southern EU countries. The refugee crisis propelled it on to the national stage in a way no–one predicted.
The current leader of AfD is an East German-born female scientist, Frauke Petry, who believes that German police should ‘if necessary’ shoot at migrants seeking to enter the country illegally. A poll found nearly 30 percent of the electorate agreed.

She's just crashing the fucking party into the ground, doing as much damage as she can before she gets power foisted from her grasp.
Is this woman genuinely losing her mind?
I mean that. What's going through her head?
She just knows German law.
There is literally nothing a party can change.
Germany is doomed. And not because of refugees, they are just a symptom of a sick and corrupt people.

Any anons there can explain why it is that Merkel continues her current stance on immigration, despite all the harm the have done to the EU?

If even Merkel can't explain her stance, why would any Anon be able to?
She's killing Germany for no visible reason.
Good. If she keeps the doors open, it keeps the fire burning so the right-wing cause doesn't lose steam.

Pity afd didn't come first in saxony for better headlines, and forcing the parties to lose legitimacy by barring the largest party from office
>>67362943
Problem is Merkel is already on the conservative side of politics, so whoever replaces her will be from the left and just be worse on this issue
why does germany have such a hardon for turkey? i mean they did import millions already to fill their holes, but why do they want turks to fill every single hole in europe?
