Debate over Wüst's Turkey trip and migration narrative

German commentators are debating North Rhine-Westphalia's Minister-President Hendrik Wüst's trip to Turkey. A social media post by Karsten Holexa questions the 'positive narrative about migration' surrounding the visit, arguing it irritates him which kind of migration receives recognition, with the Turkish guest workers of earlier decades cast in a particular role while other migrant groups are assigned a different one. The exchange touches on how German politicians frame the history and politics of Turkish immigration.
Why now: Wüst's Turkey visit and his framing of migration are drawing criticism amid ongoing German debates about immigration policy.
