What a failed CDU motion tells us about the future of dual citizenship in Germany
Briefly

The recent political maneuvers in Germany reveal a crucial moment for citizenship reform, particularly following the conservative CDU's dual actions. One motion, concerning borders and asylum policy, successfully passed with backing from the far-right AfD, while another aimed at security provisions and addressing dual citizenship issues ultimately failed.
