The flow of refugees to Germany does not stop. In some years it decreases, in others it increases, but it is constant. The number of refugee applications in 2022 is significant has increased. Last year, Germany took in almost one million people from Ukraine. In order for them to stay in the country, they have to apply for refugee status. They are not required to do so, but they can benefit from the social benefits available to refugees. Syrians accounted for the highest number of refugee applications last year: 61,200 people. These are refugee applications make up 32 per cent of all workers. Examples of this development have been seen in the past. Germany, which opened its doors to around 800,000 Syrian refugees in 2016 very few of them were deported. Those who remained entered different segments of the cheap labour market. Those Syrians who have been able to do so are sure to inform their relatives in Syria, Turkey or other countries in the neighbourhood. come! As communication and travelling facilities have improved considerably compared to the past, positive developments in a country is heard. Afghans make up the second largest number: 31,395 people. Germany and Afghanistan have had important links since the beginning of the last century. Afghanistan was the centre of the 20th century. India and Pakistan were not separated in those years, as India had been Britain's most important colony until then. Germany, which was at war with Afghanistan, was also paying close attention to this country. German is a recognised language in Afghanistan and not a few Afghans have graduated from German universities. During the occupation of Afghanistan, which was mainly led by the USA, Germany was also present in the country (Kandahar) and was and took the Afghans who worked for them with them. I don't know what the connection between the new refugees and the previous ones is. Considering the Afghan culture, where kinship ties are broad and important, there must be some. The third largest group of refugees are from Turkey. 19,750 people. Since Turkey is constantly in the German media and the economic situation and political developments are monitored, the new influx of refugees is not surprising. is not seen as an unexpected development. Iraqis are in fourth place: 14,058 people. The total number of these refugees is small compared to the number of Ukrainians. The housing shortage in Germany has reached its highest level in 30 years: 700.000. New houses are being built all the time, but the housing shortage is hardly easing. In addition, because of its not too bad economic situation, Germany is also receiving a steady flow of immigrants from the EU countries, especially Italy. immigration. German courses are full of Italians. In Turkey, some of the future doctors who enter medical school immediately enrol in a German course. Their training lasts at least six years, and it is not known what will happen in the meantime. Some Nazi groups organised a few attacks on Ukrainian accommodation, but that was the end of it. As long as the cost of living in Germany remains high, refugees will sooner or later become targets.
