The suspect in the Magdeburg Christmas market attack is a self-described Saudi dissident. German authorities say he supports a right-wing party. Could police have done more to prevent the ramming? And where does this leave a country divided by immigration and the rising popularity of the far-right?

In this episode:
Ulrich Brueckner, Professor, Political Science, Stanford University, Berlin.
Rachel Rizzo, Non-resident Senior Fellow, Atlantic Council's Europe Center.
Muhammad al Kashef, Political Adviser and Consultant, Migrants Solidarity Network.
