German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has announced plans to toughen the country's deportation rules following recent attacks. The Interior Ministry is in discussions with Afghanistan's neighbors regarding the deportation of criminal migrants. Scholz emphasized that Germany will not tolerate threats to its freedom and peace, even if the individuals come from war zones or unsafe homelands such as Afghanistan and Syria. Scholz described the situation as a surge of political 'terror' and stressed the need for stringent measures to ensure public safety. 'Anyone who threatens our freedom and disturbs our peace should be afraid,' Scholz stated.
