Decisions long considered stable are being questioned, while political dynamics accelerate and new lines emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Germany, the developments of the previous year continue to have an impact. The migration issue remains central, as do the social and political tensions arising from it. Differences between East and West become more pronounced, particularly in political attitudes and election results, reflected in growing support for new political forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Europe remains under pressure. The consequences of migration, economic issues, and security challenges overlap. At the same time, it becomes clear how difficult it is to find common answers when national interests move more strongly into the foreground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Internationally, the year marks a turning point. The referendum in the United Kingdom leads to the decision to leave the European Union. In the United States, Donald Trump is elected president, calling political certainties into question and reshaping existing tensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">These developments show that political stability is not a fixed state, but must be continually renegotiated.<br>Exile 216.<br>A year in which the familiar shifts and the new has not yet found a firm place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2016 shakes political certainties. Germany tense, Europe under pressure, new directions worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/marlas.army\/en\/exil-215-2015\/\"><strong>Exile 215<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/marlas.army\/en\/exil-214-2014\/\"><strong>Exile 214<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/marlas.army\/en\/exil-213-2013\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/marlas.army\/exil-210-2010\/\"><strong>Exile 213<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Exile Chronicle<br>All previous (from 130 \u2013 earlier entries are on <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MarlaSvenjaL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">X\/Twitter<\/a>) and ongoing entries of my Exile Chronicle are collected and documented here:<br>\ud83d\udc49 <a href=\"https:\/\/marlas.army\/en\/exil-chronik\/\">https:\/\/marlas.army\/exil-chronik\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-9-16 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Marla Svenja L Exil216 2016 Brexit, Trump, Spannungen in Deutschland\" width=\"422\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/v_sXCtipSYc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"marlas-author-box\">\n  <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/marlas.army\/en\/marla-svenja-liebich\/\">Marla Svenja Liebich<\/a><\/strong>\n  is the author and publisher of <strong>Marlas Army<\/strong>.<br>\n  On Marla\u2019s Army, she publishes analyses, commentary, and personal accounts on social and political developments in Germany.\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heute ist der Tag 216 meines Exils.Exil 216.
