The article accuses the government of hiding behind EU rules and calls for Denmark-style unilateral action. Although rhetoric is fiery, the takeaway for mobility professionals is that migration remains Germany’s most polarising policy arena; sudden legislative changes cannot be ruled out despite EU harmonisation.

For now, EU law still prevails, but companies should monitor Bundestag discussions and court calendars closely, as new injunctions can impact border wait times overnight.
