After resigning – This was how Nehammer’s first public performance went

Under the title “Time Turn on Tour”, the Bavarian Capital discussed on Thursday about democracy, European security and the current migration crisis (see link below).

Well -known positions repeated
In terms of content, there was little surprising by Nehammer, he repeated his well -known positions. “International conflicts, from Ukraine to the Middle East, have serious consequences for European safety. Europe must become more defensive to protect its citizens, “he wrote after the discussion about X.

Solution of the asylum crisis as a “matter of fate for the EU”
He described the solution to the asylum crisis as the “matter of fate for the European Union”, which could weaken or even strengthen the community of states.

Reform requirement for the Geneva refugee treaty
He sees reform needs on the Geneva refugee treaty, because the rules are now violating with reality: “Escape is internationalized”. However, the European legal systems are not to this development and the overwhelming systems lead to radicalization. “People are not necessarily bader or less tolerant than when creating the Geneva Treaty on the refugee. However, confidence in the regulatory competence of democracy has been lost. That is a very dangerous development.

“Security brings freedom”
That is why security is an important topic. “Because freedom requires safety and security, freedom brings. If people have the feeling of uncertainty, they feel less free. And if you feel less free, you feel threatened. And if you feel threatened, you will be led by the radicals because it apparently answers, although we all know that this is not the case. But at least it sounds like hope ”.

Nehammer therefore argued for that actions and pragmatic rule: “We must leave the moral claim of good and respond to the pragmatic, rule of law but regulatory competence. So that people feel that the state and the European Union have the situation under control. “

This not only applies to the issue of migration, but also to defense. “There are many problems that we as Europeans have to solve, and it doesn’t matter if I am neutral or not, I can participate everywhere.”
