Björn Harms announced that his new book "The Asylum Complex" would be available in stores the following day; he already had some freshly printed copies in hand. He wrote that the book includes, among other things, a detailed overall calculation of the asylum costs of past years and an overview of the number of asylum accommodations in Germany. According to him, the federal government does not know this number. According to Harms, the book also addresses real estate companies and hoteliers who earn millions by renting to the state, as well as home operators, welfare associations, lawyer networks, and state companies that benefit from the growing market or mass immigration. He announced interviews with insiders from the social industry and the real estate market, as well as insights into asylum NGOs, refugee councils, and million-euro funding programs from the EU and the federal government. Additionally, the book aims to address legal questions related to the topic of asylum. Harms requested feedback on the book. #Asylkomplex #Buchneuerscheinung #Asylpolitik (translated)

Bo_Lognese wrote that a linked post shows what refugee aid looked like in the 1990s when hundreds of thousands of people fled to Germany from the Yugoslav Wars. He also asked for the opinion of his readers. https://t.co/TMs0KuXeSo #Flüchtlingshilfe #Jugoslawienkrieg #Geschichte (translated)

Didi wrote that the federal government has paid 40 billion to Ukraine, provided an additional 60 billion, and offered extensive military aid. Germany has also taken in 1.5 million Ukrainian war refugees. Nevertheless, in his opinion, the people in Ukraine currently do not feel sufficiently noticed while the 84-year-old Schröder is celebrating in Moscow. #Ukraine #Hilfsangebote #Flüchtlinge (translated)

Nico Lange criticized a proposal by AfD and BSW in the state parliament of Saxony-Anhalt regarding peace talks. He wrote that Russia had attacked Ukraine and should not be rewarded for it. Ukraine has been ready for an unconditional and comprehensive ceasefire since March 2025, but Russia has not been so far. Therefore, pressure must be exerted on Moscow, Lange said. Arms deliveries do not necessarily extend the war, he argued. Germany is supplying air defense systems and ammunition that protect people and infrastructure. Ending support could weaken Ukraine's defense and make further waves of migration to Germany more likely. Lange also considered a complete lifting of sanctions against Russia before negotiations to be diplomatically unprofessional. The federal government supports a negotiated end to the war; it is crucial to move Russia towards a sustainable ceasefire and serious talks, he wrote. #Frieden #UkrainischerKonflikt #Diplomatie (translated)

The author wrote that Boris Pistorius is right. The AfD and BSW would enable Vladimir Putin to annex Ukraine through brutal attacks on the civilian population. A massacre and the subsequent civil war would, in his assessment, bring the largest wave of refugees to Germany since World War II. He asked what would happen then. #Ukraine #Flüchtlinge #Putin #DE #UA #RU (translated)

René Springer wrote that employees of job centers reported daily about Ukrainians who received basic income support and subsequently traveled to Ukraine to work there. He said that these trips home were initially denied; later, Correctiv reported on it, and the federal government acknowledged it. Springer suggested that bus companies should maintain passenger lists that would be cross-referenced with the data of benefit recipients at the job centers. Anyone traveling to Ukraine, according to his plan, should receive a re-entry ban. He estimated the damage at a double-digit billion amount. #Soziales #Arbeitsmarkt #Flüchtlingspolitik (translated)

According to the UN, the fighting in Yemen between government forces and Houthi militia has led to a massive movement of over 184,000 people who urgently need humanitarian assistance, while the military confrontations over control of strategically important areas, including Bab al-Mandab, continue to escalate. #Jemen #Flüchtlinge #Kriegszustand (translated)

The author claimed that Germany has so far given 102 billion to Ukraine. Aid for Ukrainian refugees and deserters has not yet been taken into account. Moreover, according to him, billions more are added daily, as promised by Friedrich Merz. https://t.co/XSDeq9g5oq #Ukraine #Deutschland #Hilfen #UA #DE (translated)

The author estimated the maximum savings for the federal government at a total of 70 billion euros: 25 billion from the exit of all refugees, 25 billion from the end of development aid, 15 billion from the end of Ukraine aid, and five billion from cuts to NGOs, the chancellery, and other areas. Nevertheless, according to his presentation, there remained a new debt of 130 billion euros and unresolved issues regarding pensions, health and care insurance, and infrastructure. #Politik #Finanzen #Flüchtlinge #DE #UA (translated)

The author asked what advantages the support for Ukraine brings according to Ronzheimer. He wrote that refugees are already in Germany and are receiving social benefits despite the billions in military aid. He also asked what Russia should be kept away from; he did not finish the subsequent sentence stating that Russia has "none." #UkrainischerKonflikt #Russland #Flüchtlingspolitik (translated)

Ronzheimer asked whether the claim that Ukrainian refugees would all "come to us" after the war was meant as a threat. He wrote that the end of a war eliminates the reason for fleeing, and people would stay on site to rebuild their country. He endorsed humanitarian aid but described the portrayal as a constructed straw man and dishonest. #UkrainianConflict #Flüchtlinge #HumanitäreHilfe (translated)

Paul Ronzheimer wrote that Friedrich Merz was criticized from both the far right and far left for traveling to Kyiv during the most difficult time for Ukrainians to show solidarity and announce further assistance. Merz also sought to signal to Putin that they would not be intimidated. Ronzheimer questioned whether the critics wanted Putin to win the war, that millions of refugees would also come to Germany, that a militarily strengthened Russia would attack more countries, or that a dictatorship would prevail over democracy. He wrote that, in his opinion, Merz was right to be in Ukraine right now. #Solidarität #Ukraine #FriedrichMerz (translated)
