imagine then that this could put pressure on her and her migration policies with it do you think absolutely because of the iraq migration policy and the refugee policy close feeling to a person very the refugee policy over until america has been on to close scrutiny now for several weeks now as we've seen the house being a scandal at the federal migration office already and if we now have a look at who has made these allegations it is troubleshooter fungurume visors not just some of the official of the migration or has it is the chosen mount of uncle americal herself himself under medical shows fungurume buys it to cope with the problems in the migration office when he's now saying this office was in such a state i haven't seen before and it was totally unfit to tackle the task it was made for and i told you several times and you didn't do anything this puts close brush up not only and i'm glad michael but also on the former interior

minister thomas dementia and the corruption scandal at the office that in but i mean can you explain this for all international view is absolutely the. the office for migration and refugees split into several branches which are all of the branches of the german state. there's a there's a broad to brim in this about want to believe in there's one in bavaria too and this specific braman branch must have way through more or less more than one thousand saddam see because giving that granting them asylum although there was no legal ground for this and there's even talk that some of them bribed their way through to their sodomy. replication this of course is a huge scandal could solve we've already seen very inquiry last. where the acting interior minister whole see the whole thing has already said we have to closely look at everything and you already started pointing the finger at his predecessor thomas demeans yeah so that was already some motion towards the government to

towards putting pressure on the america so this scandal is adding up now it is a huge scandal have we heard from the government how are they responding to all of this was i just said there has been already a parliamentary inquiry last week and this will be going on the acting interior minister holds the offer who is not in himself responsible for the scandal as he just got into office this year he already said we have to look closely at this you already started pointing the finger as previous and there the opposition is already calling for a parliamentary inquiry commission which they would to bring in during the next weeks it's still quite sure that if this is going to come but especially the far right opposition the a of d. party they have always wanted to make some sort of a trip would know of the americans refugee policy so if this committee would come then we would not only talk about the scandal at the migration office we would talk
