Merz ist auf den Spuren von Orban und Meloni. Er gefährdet Europa, rüttelt an den Grundfesten von Rechtsstaatlichkeit und Demokratie, er wirft zentrale Lehren des Nationalsozialismus' über Bord. 1/3 www.medico.de/blog/trumpis...

This photo shows the room where someone seeking asylum has been housed. The bed is just a thin, blue mattress on the floor. The only privacy is provided by a collapsable screen and a sheet. The words "So nobody is forced to live like this" has been written onto the photo in Refugee Action branded font.
