Germany will return from the border migrants without documents
Germany begins to return from its borders migrants who have no identity documents, including those seeking asylum. The new Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt issued an order on Wednesday.
Dobrindt announced his decision to cancel the 2015 instruction, which allowed the entry of third -party citizens without documents in order to reduce illegal migration, stating that their number was still too high.
« This question is about clarity, consistency and control, » the minister told reporters.
The rejection of asylum seekers is legal dispute, as international law prohibits the repulsion of seekers. The coalition agreement between the conservatives of Mertz and the Social Democrats states that the move must be coordinated with neighboring countries.
Dobrindt, a member of the Conservative Block of Merz, plans to send up to 3000 additional border officials to limit illegal migration, increasing the number of border police to 14,000, according to a Bild newspaper.

The 2015 instruction was given at the time of then Chancellor Angela Merkel, whose term was determined by the arrival of hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers in Germany, many of whom were running from the war in Syria.
Prior to the federal elections in Germany in February, Mertz promised repression against migration after a series of crimes involving migrants and increasing support for the far right.
