Regina Laska criticized that Michail Swintschuk, despite his inclusion on the EU sanctions list in June 2023, apparently managed to travel from Germany to Bosnia and Herzegovina. According to Bosnian media, the founder of the Russian propaganda channel Rybar flew from Memmingen Airport to Sarajevo on October 2. The Bosnian portal Detector reported that he had been arrested a few days later in Montenegro and expelled for reasons of national security. During the arrest, the police seized high-resolution cameras, a drone, and several cell phones; it was unclear whether Swintschuk had these with him in Memmingen. Laska pointed out that, according to her account, Swintschuk is subject to an EU entry ban and is not allowed to enter or transit EU territory. Since a flight from Memmingen to Sarajevo leads over a Schengen external border, she asked how Swintschuk got to Germany, who issued him a visa, and whether his sanctioning had been recognized upon departure. According to Laska, there has been no confirmation of the trip by German authorities so far. She contrasted border controls at Memmingen Airport with those ordered by Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) at the Austrian border. There, small cars are searched for refugees, whereas Swintschuk, according to her account, departed from the airport. She also pointed out that the Bavarian border police, which conducts checks at the airport, was established in 2018 by Markus Söder. Laska expressed outrage over what Russian nationals are still allowed to do in Germany and ironically asked whether RT chief Margarita Simonjan could soon book a wellness vacation in Garmisch. #EUSanktionen #Russland #Einreiseverbot (translated)

Zara Riffler wrote that under CSU Minister Dobrindt there is not only no real turnaround in deportations; family reunification is also continuing. She referred to Spreeathen, according to which most visas for family reunification are now going to Turks, Kosovars, and Indians, followed by Syrians and Albanians. https://t.co/jpKFMnocQv https://t.co/AEim8uQDak #Familiennachzug #Abschiebung #Migration (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann reported, citing the spokesperson for the Ministry of the Interior of Baden-Württemberg, that the 27-year-old Afghan entered Germany in December 2015 and applied for asylum. The BAMF rejected the application in January 2018 and threatened deportation to Afghanistan. A lawsuit by the man was dismissed by the administrative court in July 2021. Since then, he has been subject to enforceable deportation. Because deportations to Afghanistan were suspended from August 2021, he initially remained in Germany. After the federal government, under Interior Minister Dobrindt, organized regular deportations to Afghanistan again and obtained replacement documents more frequently, the government presidency of Karlsruhe initiated a passport procurement procedure for the man. His identity had been unclear until then. In early October, the local regulatory office delivered him a letter asking him to report to the General Consulate of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in mid-October. This did not happen. It is still unclear whether this is related to the incident in the Tuttlingen town hall, where the man appeared with a firearm and was shot by police officers after allegedly firing at them first, Kussmann wrote. According to Kussmann, the man had been convicted in Germany of bodily harm, trespassing, property damage, theft, and threats, resulting in fines. From October 2025 to April 2026, he served a substitute prison sentence. He was not registered with the special unit for dangerous foreigners in Baden-Württemberg. #Tuttlingen #Asylrecht #InnereSicherheit (translated)

Jens Winter wrote that Alexander Dobrindt stated after the attack on the Berlin power supply in January: "We will strike back." Nine months later, Wolfram Weimer awarded a publisher with up to 50,000 euros of taxpayer money, in which, according to Winter, a climate extremist called for the blowing up of pipelines. https://t.co/OvmNCNlPs9 https://t.co/fW7svonHGs #Klima #Politik #Umweltschutz (translated)

"Regular asylum procedures cannot be carried out when it is clear that the mass influx of migrants is not a humanitarian situation, but the result of smuggling and misinformation," said German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt to reporters ahead of a meeting. #migracije #azil #EuropskaUnija (translated)

"This is a big challenge that needs to be tackled, and for that, one must also discuss the willingness of the other side, namely the third countries, in the coming months." Federal Minister of the Interior Alexander Dobrindt hopes for a concrete agreement for the establishment of "return hubs" with third countries by the end of this year. #Abschiebezentren #Migration #EUAsylrecht (translated)

"Schnellverfahren zu Rückführungen, weil eine Ausnahmesituation identifiziert ist, die nichts mit einer humanitären Notlage zu tun hat"Bundesinnenminister Alexander Dobrindt unterstützt - gerade infolge der Ceuta-Krise - einen solchen Sonderweg und spricht von "Schnellverfahren zu Rückführungen, weil eine Ausnahmesituation identifiziert ist, die nichts mit einer humanitären Notlage zu tun hat". #Ceuta #Migration #EU

Von der Leyen will 700 Millionen für Krisenhilfe an Drittstaaten verteilen. Migrationsgipfel: Dobrindt will Frontex zu »echter Rückführungsagentur« ausbauen.

Ach, das geht? Beschlossen werden sollen "Robuste Zurückweisung an den europäischen Aussengrenzen" (Push-Backs) und "Beschränkungen des Zugangs zu Asylverfahren." Besprochen haben das die EU Innenminister auf Einladung von Dobrindt letzten Samstag in München. Beschlossen werden soll es Anfang Oktober beim EU Innen- und Justizminister Treffen in Luxemburg. 2 Wochen später soll es von den EU Staats- und Regierungschefs abgesegnet werden. Ist halt genau das, was die Mehrheit der Europäer seit fast 10 Jahren fordern, und uns immer erzählt wurde: "dAs geHt aBeR nichT 1elf!!!" Kaum stürzt die CDU so richtig ab, und die AfD steht bei knapp 30% bundesweit geht's dann plötzlich doch. Man hätte sich halt ziemlich viel Scheissdreck ersparen können, wenn man ein bisschen früher darauf gekommen wäre, nech? https://t.co/l1EApAJy7L #EU #Asylpolitik #Migration
