Immigration and Refugees
In recent years, Wagenknecht’s views on immigration and refugees have shifted, causing further controversy. Initially a proponent of traditional left-wing, anti-racist policies, she has since adopted a more restrictive stance on immigration. She argues that uncontrolled immigration can strain social welfare systems and undermine workers’ rights. This position has led to accusations of pandering to right-wing populism and has sparked debates within the left-wing political community.
