Germany might ban travel of asylum seekers
08/08/2015 00:00
All 94.000 asylum seekers from Balkan countries will be banned from Germany, due to the fear of applying again.
The news has been announced by Director of the Immigration Care and Supervision, Manfred Schmidt, in an interview for Die Welt.
Schmidt admits the Authority is facing a crisis due to the long time that procedures require, and also because of the asylum seekers who have repeated their requests.
He says that Germany has 450.000 asylum requests in 2015, 250.000 of which are yet to be processed. 52% of the cases belong to the past six months.
For this reason, Schmidt says that the problem is a law of 2013, when Germany had 127.000 requests.
