This is the best summary I could come up with:
On January 10, the investigative journalism group Correctiv reported on a meeting of politicians from the Alternative for Germany (AfD) and neo-Nazis in a hotel in Potsdam in November.
"The plans to expel millions of people are reminiscent of the darkest chapter in German history," wrote Christian Dürr, parliamentary group leader of the neoliberal Free Democrats (FDP), the smallest member of the centrist coalition government.
In numerous essays, Sellner has written about the need to deport "asylum fraudsters" and "non-citizens who represent a cultural, economic and criminological burden" - as should "non-assimilated naturalized citizens".
"We must finally deport on a large scale those who have no right to stay in Germany," said Chancellor Olaf Scholz of the center-left Social Democratic party (SPD) last autumn, in response to widespread calls for a reduction in the numbers of asylum seekers.
A day later, AfD co-chairman Tino Chrupalla wrote in response to the discussion of the expulsion plans: "We invite Germans with a history of migration to join us in creating a change for the better."
"If the Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the security authorities see sufficient evidence here for launching the procedure to ban the party, then it must be considered," Strobl said in an interview with public broadcaster SWR.
