GERMANY - On Friday the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party announced that they have taken out a lawsuit against chancellor Angela Merkel over her decision to open Germany’s borders to refugees in 2015. Members of the AfD motivated the party’s action against Merkel and in a press conference [said], “The Federal Government is bound by law and order. This is completely clear; this is the division of power. The Federal Government cannot say, now we find that one law is convenient, and the other less convenient. No, there’s no dictator chancelloress; she cannot exist, according to the law. The chancellor has to follow law and order, and essential decisions, essential decisions that concern our community, have to be decided in the Parliament.”
