Germany tightens rules for asylum seekers

German lawmakers have approved new measures to tackle Europe’s refugee crisis.

The list of countries Germany deems “safe” will be widened to include Kosovo, Albania and Montenegro, whose citizens will generally have no chance of being granted asylum.

That will allow Germany to focus on refugees fleeing war zones such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel told Germany’s parliament that working with Turkey is key to solving the crisis, including providing humanitarian aid, helping to secure borders and combating people trafficking.

“Most war refugees who come to Europe travel via Turkey. We won’t be able to order and stem the refugee movement without working together with Turkey,” Merkel said.

Asylum seekers will have to stay longer in reception centres while their requests are processed:from three months to six months.

During this period, the are generally entitled to lower benefits. In addition, the new legislation provides for a switch from cash benefits to payments in kind “as far as possible” for those waiting in reception centres.

Human rights groups Amnesty International and Pro Asyl criticised the approved measures, saying the new measures put too much emphasis on deterrence and exclusion.

They are using the sympathy of good people in their global conquest to impose evil.

They’d better tighten more than their rules.

I’m afraid it’s too little too late, Germany.
You’ve been invaded and colonized by 7th century murderous savages. You have Merkel to thank for that.

Don’t save them. Let the muslims do what muslims do and after all the German idiots are killed off, THEN go in and exterminate the jihadis.

Let evolution work. End result - Less liberals to screw the world up.

Well if Amnesty International criticized it then it must be a good move.

I was in Germany from 80 to 84. They already had a bunch of Turks, Pakistani, Iranians, Iraqis, Bangladeshis, and a host of of other people from traditionally Muzzie countries. I have no doubt it is MUCH worse now.

The savages were supposed to do the grunt work the Germans didn’t want to do or have young people to do, then at age 45 they were expected to return to whatever 3rd world muzzle toilet they climbed out of.
But how you gonna keep ‘em, down in their ****holes, after they’ve seen Berlin? If the Germans ‘return to their vomit’ they only have themselves to blame.

Doesn't mean the tens - probably hundreds - of thousands from those countries will be sent back.
