German Chancellor Ends Asylum for Syrian Refugees and Warns of Deportations
Washington Examiner ^ | November 4, 2025 | Timothy Nerozzi

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is warning Syrian refugees to return to their country or else face deportation.

The center-right leader said that following the end of the nation’s civil war, the approximately 1,000,000 Syrian refugees will be expected to repatriate.

“There are now no longer any grounds for asylum in Germany, and therefore we can also begin with repatriations,” the chancellor said on Monday.

“I will say it again: The civil war in Syria is over,” Merz emphasized. “There are now no longer any grounds for asylum in Germany.”

If Syrian nationals who fled the violence of their country’s civil war do not voluntarily leave, the chancellor has left the door open for compulsory deportations, claiming that Syria cannot be restored without the return of its diaspora.

Civil Wars are also over in North Africa, Afghaniraq, the Arabian Peninsula, all the reaches of South Asia, Gaza, and the rest of the Levant. Everywhere! Wars and Civil Wars are over! Congratulations! Y’all can go home now!

I think the Germans will soon find out that it was much easier to invite them in than it will be to get them to leave.

It'll be like asking a lot of lampreys to simply release their prey and return home.

Easier to deport them because they don't really need them for votes unlike the Labour Party in the UK.

He need to announce that Germany will build 10 new nuclear plants in the next 10 years.

If these stupid krauts would do away with that idiotic firewall they could form a majority coalition with AfD and get those left-wing SPD morons out of the current coalition. Then you would have a much more cohesive coalition.
