Back to EpisodesMerz Proposes Syrian Returns, Sparks Protests
Description
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz proposes a plan to repatriate 80% of Syrian refugees in Germany within three years, with exceptions for key workers. The proposal sparks protests, including from Yazidi-German author Düzen Tekkal, who argues it boosts Islamist networks and ignores the pain caused by the Syrian civil war. Meanwhile, parts of the Syrian community welcome the plan, as Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa visits Berlin. The proposal reflects Germanys evolving stance on returns amid Syrias changes, balancing security, economy, and divided diaspora voices.
