    Germany’s interior minister is calling for direct talks to deport Afghan migrants who were convicted of crimes.

    Isn’t there something like equal laws = equal punishment for breaking them?

      The German state or it’s institutions have repeatedly communicated that they consider the human rights granted by the Grundgesetz (constitution) to only be valid for German citizens. Even EU officials from Germany where subject of surveillance by German secret service with the legal argument of “Funktionsträger”, that by being a EU parliamentarian is a function which is discernable from the German citizen and therefore can be subject to surveillance. Human rights are an ideal which sometimes gets uphold by courts, not by politicians in rethoric, nor by government in practice. It’s performance.
