According to a new assessment by Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser, Afghanistan is now considered a "country of origin with good prospects of remaining". Asylum seekers from Afghanistan can take part in state-funded integration courses in Germany even before a decision is made on their application. The SPD politician decided in favour of this classification of Afghanistan, although the criterion of an "overall protection quota" of more than 50 per cent, which has applied in recent years, has not been met. The Federal Ministry of the Interior justifies the new vote in an internal submission by stating that it can be assumed that the protection quota for Afghanistan "will increase in the future". read more
