Bundestag Begins Budget Debates

BERLIN, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 25: German Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU, L) and German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble (CDU) arrive for a meeting of the Bundestag, the German federal parliament, as its members discuss the country's 2016 budget on November 25, 2015, in Berlin, Germany. After the leader of the Bavarian chapter of her party, Horst Seehofer, openly critized her for her open-door policy towards refugees, Merkel is facing increased pressure to put a limit on the number of migrants allowed into the country. Since the beginning of the month, almost 180,000 refugees have entered Germany, with up to 800,000 expected in the following year, a number affecting discussions as to how to allocate the country's financial resources.
