Increasing air strikes on ISIS in Syria as the UK, Germany and France are going to do is counterproductive. It is not up to us to win this war. The EU should tackle the main roots of the refugee crisis in Africa, where efficiency is assured.
Being in office since 2005, Angela Merkel is under pressure as never before. Nevertheless, according to Josef Janning, she will probably still run for office again in 2017.
According to Josef Janning, the terrorist threat is not over with the attacks in Paris. He believes that cooperation between USA, Russia and the EU regarding ISIS is only possible when this action will stabilize the region in the long-run.
Even though the numbers of terrorists coming to Europe as refugees is increbibly small, Josef Janning notices how populists create the image of chaotic, uncontrolled migration to Europe.
Josef Janning quoted: Angela Merkel should not change her political stance on migration, while national-conservatives present it as a threat, since she would lose her credibility.
