Markus Lanz on Wednesday: All topics and guests at a glance

On Wednesday, Markus Lanz will be talking about the TV debate in the USA and the migration debate in the Bundestag. These are the guests.

Talk master Markus Lanz is known for asking the really important questions about current social and political debates – and he likes it in a variety of ways. No wonder that this Wednesday (September 11, 2024) he has a colorful bouquet of topics with him that he would like to discuss with his guests. It’s not just about the historic TV duel between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, but also about the ongoing migration debate in the traffic light government and the new book by Green politician Jürgen Trittin.

Of course he is also there to promote his new work. Just in time for the publication of his autobiography, he is taking advantage of the opportunity to draw his conclusions from the federal government’s recent refugee policy and to reassess the relationship between Germany and the USA.

Journalist Elmar Theveßen takes a front-row look at the events and forecasts surrounding the upcoming presidential election in the USA. He is head of the ZDF studio in Washington and knows what makes the United States tick.

Markus Lanz: Guests and topics on Wednesday

While Kamala Harris is taking the lead in the election campaign in the USA, the parties in Germany seem to have lost orientation on one question: where is the migration debate going? Thorsten Frei, first parliamentary director of the CDU/CSU in the Bundestag, explains the termination of the debate and can expect headwind from publicist Wolfram Weimer. The editor of “The European” takes a critical look at the events in the debate, while Victoria Rietig, head of the migration program at the German Council on Foreign Relations, provides insights into the background.

The ZDF talk show “Markus Lanz” runs on Wednesday, September 11th at 11:15 p.m. and on Thursday at the same time.
