German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is now planning to send thousands of Syrian refugees back to their home nation after suppressing the speech of right-wingers who have long advised the same.
Merz said on Monday that he will begin discussing repatriation of Syrians in Germany after a new government under Interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa ousted Bashar al-Assad in late 2024. Currently, there are roughly 1 million Syrian refugees in Germany, most of whom were fleeing the devastation of their country’s civil war.
“The civil war in Syria is over,” Merz told reporters Monday. “There are now no longer any grounds for asylum in Germany, which means we can begin repatriating people.”
Merz has previously refused to work with the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD), which has been at the forefront of anti-immigration policy in the nation’s parliament. In fact, Merz’s party, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), instead formed a coalition government with the left-wing Social Democratic Party (SPD). more here

Censoring? Suppressing?
How about outright murdering/behind the murders of/not pursuing the murderers of (choose any/all of the above) the AfD leadership?
