Merkel's policy toward refugees blamed for regional election defeat
(MENAFN) Local expects said that German Chancellor Angela Merkel's allies have urged her to change course on refugees after her governing CDU party was beaten in a regional election by an anti-immigrant party.
In detail, the right-wing AfD party, formed only three years ago, came second in the chancellor's home state of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania, polling 21%.
Mrs Merkel has defended her policies but said she needs to "win back trust".
Some 1.1 million refugees and migrants entered Germany in 2015.
Many of them arrived after the government decided to loosen border controls just over a year ago.
