The highest level of people’s satisfaction with the migration policy is registered in Denmark where a positive evaluation was given by 27 percent of respondents.
The poll in Germany was conducted on June 20 – July 4 with some 2,060 people participating in it.
The poll was held amid the coalition crisis between the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and its Bavarian sister party Christian Social Union (CSU) on the migration issue.
On July 2, the parties agreed to establish transit centers that would help speed up deportations by turning away refugees at the German-Austrian border if they had already filed asylum applications in other states. They also agreed to seek a bilateral deal with Austria on migration.
