Annalena Baerbock, Germany’s Foreign Minister, has criticized statements made by Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Interior Minister Nancy Faeser regarding the deportation of Afghan migrants. She added that this decision will not enhance security.
According to reports, the Interior Minister made these comments on Friday, July 26, at an event covered by “Die Zeit” magazine in Hamburg. Without naming individuals, she emphasized that “if you make commitments that you cannot understand how to implement the next day, it cannot contribute to strengthening security.”
Baerbock pointed to the recent killing of a German police officer in Mannheim by an Afghan national, stating that such “violent criminals have forfeited their right to protection.” She argued that expelling Afghan and Syrian migrants will not resolve the issue of “dangerous individuals,” as there are still many challenges in this area.
Previously, Chancellor Olaf Scholz had announced plans to begin the process of expelling Afghan migrants, emphasizing readiness to initiate this action. The pressure on Afghan migrants in Germany has intensified following the killing of a police officer by an Afghan national in Mannheim.
Meanwhile, the security concerns may drive the German government’s decision to expel migrants, critics like Baerbock argue that it overlooks deeper issues. The effectiveness of such measures in addressing the root causes of security problems remains questionable.
