The German government is putting forward a comprehensive proposal for tougher laws after the knife attack in Solingen last week.
According to initial reports, the settlement includes changed rules on increased controls on migration and expanded powers for the country’s security and intelligence agencies to combat violent Islamism.
The rules also concern more extensive questions about people’s belonging to terrorist-classified organizations, when the suspected perpetrator and the terrorist organization IS claimed to be behind the act at a jubilee party in Solingen.
In addition, a knife ban will be introduced at larger public gatherings and festivals, according to Minister Faeser, who added that a more comprehensive set of regulations for a general knife ban must be drawn up.
The three government parties, the Social Democrats, the Liberals (FDP) and the environmental party The Greens also want to see changes related to support for asylum seekers, as well as increased opportunities to deport asylum seekers.
