Chanel Creative Director Karl Lagerfeld is threatening to renounce his German citizenship if Chancellor Angela Merkel’s policy of open borders continues.
Lagerfeld — who recently designed First Lady Melania Trump’s custom Chanel gown for the American-French state dinner — told the French newspaper Le Point that he would consider dropping his German citizenship if Merkel keeps allowing foreign nationals to enter the country in mass numbers.
Lagerfeld said:
“Did she really need to say it was necessary to welcome one million migrants at a time when France, which casts itself as the land of human rights, pledged to take in 30,000?” Lagerfeld said.
…
“If this keeps up, I’ll abandon German citizenship,” he continued.
The fashion icon called Merkel a “pastor’s daughter” who cannot “accept the evil that Germany carried out after 1933” and thus has attempted to make up for it by imposing a foreign population that now exceeds 11 percent in the European superpower.
Lagerfeld — whose comments fly in the face of many of his Hollywood counterparts, many of whom publicly promote open borders in America — previously blasted Merkel’s open borders policy saying, “One cannot – even if there are decades between them – kill millions of Jews and then bring millions of their worst enemies in their place.”
