Germany Issues Formal Travel Advisory For US (oh please)
Newsweek ^ | January 27, 2026 | Brendan Cole

Germany has issued a travel advisory to its citizens travelling to the United States, citing risks linked to immigration enforcement and public-order situations. 

Germany’s Federal Foreign Office said on Tuesday that German citizens should be aware of demonstrations and clashes with American migration and security authorities. 

Why It Matters

The advisory is not a political statement about the U.S. but aims to give impartial information for German citizens travelling to the country at a time of increased tensions during President Donald Trump's aggressive deportation drive.

Protests have been held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and other cities against the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol officers enforcing Trump’s immigration crackdown.

Federal agents deployed to the city under the Trump administration's "Operation Metro Surge" shot and killed U.S. citizen Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.on Saturday and fellow American Renée Good on Jnauary 7.

The statement said, according to a translation, that in Minneapolis and other cities, demonstrations sometimes lead to violent clashes with the migration and security authorities and warns people to be vigilant and stay away from crowds where violence might occur.

The advisory asks people to check out local media, stay away from crowds of people in which violence could possibly occur and note existing ID requirement in several states. "Keep calm and follow the instructions of the authorities and local security forces," added the statement. 

Last March, Germany updated its travel advisory for the U.S. to emphasize that a visa or waiver allowing entry does not guarantee citizens to enter the U.S. after several of its citizens were detained at the border.

This is coming from the country that has to remind locals that it’s illegal in the US to go nude sunbathing and going topless “not only of women but also of little girls” and that “Sexual acts involving Minors is a criminal offence.”

All the Germans coming to the US to commit CRIMES should be advised

Most likely doesn’t mean much to the Germanic people.

But they have a huge Germen Muslim population that could have a problem

Declared invasion and closed borders should have consequences

Folks travelling to Germany should also consider a travel advisory. Seems that Deutschland has had more than its share of vehicular crowd assault killings, not to mention other miscellaneous rapes and stabbings. Those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

If Germans want to avoid blue state hellhole cities that protect criminals at the expense of federal law enforcement then fine. Good for them.

Did they have travel advisories for their citizens to be careful in the Muslim occupied areas?

It’s sad they think they’re people are so stupid that they’ll attack ice agents. That’s the only way there would be any confrontation.

Next, they will clench their liddle fisties and stamp their wee footsies.

Like a UN memo.

Pi$$ on ‘em.

Rubio ought to get a copy of the order, identify the names (including family members) and ban them from entry into the US.

This is actually a great thing, because it will further reduce income to those cities and states having violent interventions.

if you were sitting in Berlin or Bonn and just had the globalist mass media reports from USA, you’d probably issue an “advisory” quite like this

A more precise advisory would be to avoid the large DNC cities (and certain enemy-controlled/infiltrated colleges).
The dangerous street mobs and rioters are mostly (well-organized and funded) in certain cities where enough Useful Idiots can be paid and assembled quickly to make for impressive mass media video reports. 98 percent of America remains mostly unaffected and is not afflicted by this problem. But sitting today in Berlin or Bavaria, you’d not know this

“”The advisory is not a political statement about the U.S. but aims to give impartial information for German citizens travelling to the country at a time of increased tensions during President Donald Trump’s aggressive deportation drive.””

***

The advisory is exactly a polititical statement against the U.S. Especially since... the German PTBs don’t really want German citizens to see ‘how it’s supposed to be done’... when violent “immigrants” are being deported, like they’re supposed to be when government actually works for their legal, taxpaying citizens, instead of against their legal, taxpaying citizens. I’m surprised that the Euro weinies haven’t issued travel bans to the US altogether for that mattter. They don’t want their citizens getting any ideas.

You raise an interesting question, hence the ping.

Freedom-loving Americans consider themselves smarter because they flock to alternative news sources. The MSM is in free-fall.

Is the same true in Germany specifically, and Europe more broadly?

Good for them. I personally would avoid all big cities. Why shouldn’t Germans?
