AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Security Powers: The Bundestag approved broader customs powers to seize suspected illicit assets, including crypto, and expanded intelligence powers to counter hybrid threats—renewing concerns over oversight. Political Tensions: The AfD named a former soccer world champion as its candidate for federal president and extended its lead over Merz’s conservatives in a poll. In Berlin, protests against military service and education cuts led to 22 detentions. Migration: Germany joined Austria, Denmark, Greece and the Netherlands in a plan for a Rwanda returns hub for people whose asylum claims have been rejected. 2027 Budget: Lawmakers approved a record €560.9 billion spending plan, backed by heavy borrowing and cuts to rail subsidies. Ukraine: Merz says Germany will take part in upcoming peace talks; Berlin also pledged €200 million in winter aid.
