Angela Merkel, CSU Coalition and Refugee Policy Opposition
German Chancellor Angela Merkel faces a cold reception from her Bavarian coalition partners, the CSU, over her "open arms" refugee policy. Party chairman Horst Seehofer reportedly lectured Merkel on stage for 15 minutes following her speech, which was met with little applause. The hosts note that Bavaria is the primary entry point for migrants, leading to significant local strain and political opposition.
