Stephan Because supports new measures to implement Asylum procedure
The discussion about Deportations and asylum procedures remain a controversial issue in Germany, dividing the Conference of Minister Presidents and the Federal Government. In the midst of this debate, Stephan WeilPrime Minister of Lower Saxony, spoke positively about a new approach.
Weil expressed his openness to conducting asylum procedures in transit countries. This proposal, which aims to address the immigration challenge in an innovative way, could represent a potential solution to the persistent problems related to migration.
Feasibility study
Chancellor Olaf Scholz has promised to examine the feasibility of asylum procedures in third countries outside the EU and to present results by December this year. This decision was made after hours of consultation with the state premiers, with the issue of deportations being the main focus.
The federal government is expected to put concrete proposals on the table to advance the discussion. The next scheduled meeting at which these proposals are to be presented is scheduled for December 12.
Controversial opinions
Not all politicians share Weil's positive attitude towards asylum procedures in transit countries. Andreas Bovenschulte, Mayor of Bremen, expressed concerns about this measure. He stressed that the majority of experts consider this model to be complicated and costly and that it is hardly compatible with international law.
Instead, Bovenschulte argued that the measures already decided should be given time to take effect. He warned against bringing new ideas to the table every day, as this would only create frustration and encourage the rise of populists.
Conclusion
The debate about deportations and asylum procedures in third countries continues to be controversial in Germany. While some politicians such as Stephan Weil are in favour of new solutions, there are also critical voices that question the feasibility and effectiveness of such measures.
It remains to be seen how the Federal Government will react to the proposals made and whether this new perspective on the Asylum policy can be implemented in practice.
