Bundesverwaltungsgericht bestätigt Rechtsauffassung des Bundesamts
Update Explained
The Federal Administrative Court of Germany has upheld the legal position of the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees, determining that asylum applications from non-vulnerable young men who were already granted international protection in Greece can be deemed inadmissible on grounds of secondary migration. The ruling addressed the deportation-relevant situation in Greece for this group and found no risk of inhuman or degrading treatment upon return. As a result, the Federal Office will proceed with rejecting these asylum applications as inadmissible and expedite deportations to Greece to highlight that migrating further to Germany is not advantageous.
What changed
