Germany’s interior minister has warned that putting a number on the amount of Afghan refugees Europe should accept will incentivize more waves of migrants to attempt to reach the continent.
Following the Taliban’s takeover of the country, untold numbers of economic migrants are trying to blend in with genuine refugees in an effort to reach the welfare havens of Europe.
The UK even announced that it wouldn’t be checking identity documents of Afghans entering the country despite the glaring security risk that such a policy entails.
While British authorities have pledged to settle at least 20,000 “refugees,” despite record numbers of migrants already arriving illegally on boats, EU countries have been more careful in avoiding putting a figure on how many they will take in.
Horst Seehofer, Germany’s interior minister, warns that signaling borders are open once again will act as an incentive for large numbers of migrants to flood into Europe.
“I don’t think it’s wise if we talk about numbers here, because numbers obviously trigger a pull effect and we don’t want that,” he said.
The previous refugee crisis, which saw over a million migrants from North Africa and the Middle East flood into Europe, led directly to huge spikes in violent crime, sexual assaults and numerous mass casualty terror attacks carried out by jihadists who exploited the refugee wave to enter European countries.
Given the debacle that happened in 2015, the prospect of Germany accepting a significant number of refugees is unlikely to be welcomed by conservative voters ahead of a national election on September 26.
Angela Merkel has said that Germany will help resettle between 10,000 and 40,000 Afghans who have family ties to Germany or worked with German military or aid organizations.
When humanitarian development worker Sybille Schnehage asked Afghan migrants why they didn’t go to nearer Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia, most of them responded by saying, “No – Germany is better.”
As we previously highlighted, a top diplomat in Kabul warned that “not even tanks” can stop a potentially large wave of Afghan refugees heading to the continent.
A report by the Center for Strategic and International Studies also cautioned that the 2021 Afghan refugee crisis could make the 2015 refugee crisis look like a “geopolitical walk in the park” in comparison.
Left-wing broadcaster Channel 4 interviewed a Ukrainian refugee who said she moved out of Birmingham, England’s second city, because she was “afraid” of living in the city as she expected more white people to be there.

Federation for American Immigration Reform President Dan Stein charged Wednesday that the Democrats are purposefully flooding the country with illegal immigrants in order to change the political electorate and keep themselves in power for the next half a century.
Appearing on Fox News, Stein urged “This is happening on purpose. The Biden Administration are co-conspirators with the cartels, who are operating with impunity all across America now.”
“We have no interior enforcement, no immigration law enforcement, obviously criminal aliens are being released en mass in part because there is no criminal detention,” Stein continued.
“They are paroling in people under phoney asylum claims by the millions, and incentivising cartels to keep smuggling people in,” he added.
Stein labeled new Arizona governor Katie Hobbs a “smuggler”, adding that “she’s operating like a travel agency to bring people in and send them all over the country, it’s happening for a reason and to expect the Biden Administration to voluntarily change course when they want this to happen is ridiculous.”
“The Republicans in Congress need to do more than just hold hearings, more than oversight, they need to tell the Department of Homeland Security ‘you cannot continue business as usual, you are breaking the law, violating it, making up new immigration laws as you go,” Stein proclaimed.
He further charged that “Democrats are invested in trying to reengineer the electorate through mass illegal immigration, they try to retain one party leadership for fifty years, they don’t give a darn about what’s happening at the border, they don’t care about Fentanyl deaths, they don’t care about illegal immigration. They are rewarding it, incentivising it and doing everything they can to promote it.”
“How can you possibly expect Democrats to turn around and do something different?” Stein asserted, adding “They’re playing a long game here, and the American people need to understand our country is being destroyed.”
Watch:
Stein’s comments come in the wake of fresh figures released by the Customs and Border Protection Agency revealing that a record amount of illegal crossings were recorded in December 2022, with 17 individuals on the terrorism watchlist apprehended.
The numbers, released Friday, show that 251,487 illegal immigrants crossed the border in December, the highest monthly total in history.
Meanwhile, amid Democratic calls for a blanket amnesty, a survey has highlighted that only fourteen percent of Americans agree that citizenship should be granted to those have have entered illegally.
