Söder under pressure! Citizens in Rott am Inn defend themselves against asylum home!

in Seon, a quiet village in Bavaria, is currently hectic. The reason for this is the resentment of the citizens about planned refugee accommodation. The municipality of Rott am Inn, with only 4,000 inhabitants, is said to accommodate 500 migrants, according to the plans. A number that seems too high for many citizens.

Before the district councilor in Seon, where the leading district administrative officials from Germany gather for the annual conference of the German District Day, a demonstration took place. The “Rott Rottert” citizens' initiative was clearly visible. "Mr. Söder, you have the power to end it" and "Citizens are still afraid" was emblazoned on their posters. Heike Bachert, a spokeswoman for the initiative, emphasized that such a high number of migrants would overwhelm the small town. She criticized the fact that the accommodation in a former production hall was not human and demanded a fairer distribution of migrants. Her words were directed directly at Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder, who had promised about half a year ago that this accommodation would not be realized.

different perspectives in the community

However, there were other voices in the region. The "Initiative Circle Migration Rosenheim" was committed to diversity and against agitation. This contrast shows how split the opinions on this sensitive topic.

parallel to the protest event, the district councils met in the Seeon monastery for the annual meeting, which took place on September 9th and 10th. A central topic on the agenda was migration policy. Prime Minister Söder confirmed his demand for a significant reduction in immigration. He emphasized that even rejections at the limits were necessary and could be carried out legally. "What works in Denmark has to go with us in the end," he said.

Interior Minister Nancy Faeser had also taken measures. She ordered temporary border controls at all German land borders to contain the irregular migration. In addition, she explained that the federal government had developed a model for rejection of refugees that go beyond the existing regulations.

The Union has now been part of her participation in the migration summit with the traffic lights and representatives of the federal states. Further demands were more deportation arrest spaces, return contracts with third countries and a reduction in social incentives for migration. In the words of the Union: "We are logistically overwhelmed."

claims of the district day

The German district council also clearly commented on the topic. Association President Reinhard Sager called for a noticeable reduction in irregular immigration. According to Sager, the time of talking must be over and concrete solutions. "The federal government has missed every consequence in the event of limitation, order and control," he criticized. Only when the population sees that sustainable changes were implemented can politics count again. The high burden on the counties, despite slightly declining asylum figures, is still a big problem.

Acceptance among the population is low and continued, Sager stated. Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced a large return offensive last year. But according to Sager, little happened. "It is really no wonder that people will lose trust in this policy," he said.
