The German parliament has narrowly passed a motion urging tough restrictions on immigration that was highly controversial because it was backed by the far-right Alternative für Deutschland party.
The motion was brought by the conservative opposition CDU-CSU and backed by, among others, the AfD, breaking a longstanding taboo on cooperation with the anti-immigration party.
MPs passed it in a vote on Wednesday with 348 votes in favour, 345 against and 10 abstentions.
I have friends talking about leaving the US due to Trump and they were dreaming of Germany. I silently asked them why in my mind. Guess their options are more limited now.
