Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel has issued a stark warning following Germany's new border policies restricting asylum seekers. Speaking at the Southwestern Press Forum, Merkel criticized the national crackdown led by Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s cabinet, warning it risks destroying the EU’s unity and the Schengen zone. Calling for “European solutions,” she reaffirmed her support for EU-level migration policy. The move marks a sharp break from her 2015 open-door stance and comes amid rising right-wing momentum, legal battles, and mounting pressure on German border forces.
