Германия: Анти-емиграционна организация марширува през Фрайтал срещу бежанската политиката на Меркел

Hundreds of anti-migrant and anti-refugee protesters gathered in the German town of Freital near Dresden, Thursday, decrying Germany’s policy on granting political asylum to Syrian refugees. The far-right demonstrators carried German national flags and banners bearing messages including “The 'pack' urges an end to the Asylum madness.” The demonstration was organised by the anti-immigration organisation Europa 2.0, which is currently calling for Brussels and the European Union to implement legislation to stop victims of war entering European borders. Germany has emerged as the priority destination for many Syrian refugees travelling to the EU after Chancellor Angela Merkel announced that the country would suspend the Dublin Regulation, essentially granting Syrian asylum seekers special status. The regulation states that asylum seekers can only claim asylum in the country they first enter in the EU, potentially facing deportation should they try to register in another member state. However, Germany is now permitting officers to process applications to the country from the first EU state they inhabit.
