Germany Agrees Migrant Deal with Egypt, Will Open ‘Refugee Reception Centre’ in Africa

Germany and Egypt have agreed on a deal aimed at stemming the number of migrants heading to Europe, including opening a ‘refugee reception’ centre in the African nation. “Under this agreement, there are a number of measures for political and economic support so that a better climate and better living conditions can be achieved for refugees in Egypt,” Chancellor Angela Merkel’s spokesman Steffen Seibert told a news conference in Berlin Tuesday.

He said the deal would “fight illegal immigration and the criminal smuggling of people”, adding: “Together, we will set up a centre for jobs, migration and reintegration,” according to Reuters news agency.

This centre would be in Egypt, a so-called transit country for refugees and economic migrants aiming to reach Europe.

More than a million migrants have arrived in Germany over the past two years since Mrs. Merkel suspended EU border rules and said her nation would take “no upper limit” of new arrivals.

The policy split her conservative coalition, with her party’s Bavarian sister party criticising her and calling for a cap on new arrivals. With Federal elections to be held next month, Mrs. Merkel is keen to look like she has control of the migrant issue.

“Germany and Egypt have agreed on a deal”.

“France is currently discussing a new migrant deal with North African nations”.

European Union...its less of an union than it was before Europe became united.

Basically, the EU will stand and pay every North African country the same deal as Turkey gets for it’s cooperation. You can figure that in five years...this will average 20 billion Euro a year that has to come out some taxation bucket...to save German embarrassment.

Well, its taxpayers will. And since money is fungible, so will US taxpayers.

Meanwhile, the millions of “refugees” already in Europe will receive their papers and bring in millions more via family reunification. No need for boats now. They can just fly them in.

Libya should be broken into three countries at least and this reception station should be in one of them. It is a good first start however. Send the African settlers who are in Europe home.

And so what is Egypt doing to help these “refugees”? Why don’t they help them to settle in Egypt?

If Germany wants to import migrants, we have plenty that we’ll be happy to send to them!

Both the migrants AND Germany will be better off.

This is nothing more than paying ransom money.

The threats and demands will only escalate over time.
