Germany's Federal Cabinet has approved new legislation aimed at tightening migration policies, notably suspending family reunification for migrants with subsidiary protection status. This reform aligns with the coalition's commitment to a 'migration turnaround.' It particularly affects those not granted asylum, mainly civil war refugees, who had previously been able to reunite with close family members. The interior minister stressed the need to reduce incentives for migration, with approximately 388,074 individuals currently under this status in Germany, predominantly from Syria.
The new legislation will suspend family reunification for migrants with subsidiary protection status, marking a significant shift in Germany's immigration policy.
Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt stated, 'We have to significantly reduce the pull factors to Germany,' justifying the government's approach to migration.
