Germany's Interior Minister Tightens Borders, Talks Taliban for Deportations
Germany's Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) has taken steps to reduce asylum applications, with a notable drop in September compared to last year. He has also initiated talks with the Taliban in Afghanistan to facilitate deportations.
The decrease in asylum applications can be attributed to stricter border controls implemented by Minister Dobrindt. In a significant move, he has dispatched officials to Kabul to engage in negotiations with the Taliban. These discussions centre around establishing regular deportation procedures to Afghanistan. Despite searches, the name of the official involved in these negotiations remains unknown.
Meanwhile, in Portugal, a new immigration law has been passed with backing from right-wing parties. This legislation has drawn criticism from left-wing members of parliament, who have labelled it as 'harsh'.
