European Parliament, Strasbourg, P9
CRE-PROV(2022)03-08(2-149-0000).
Frau President. Frau Johansson. Frau Klinkert.
You have said that the EU had acted rapidly and effectively.
Na ja, so to say; applying a
guideline is certainly not what is understood as rapid and effective action. The
Poles, the Roumanians, the Slovaks and also the Hungarians have acted rapidly
and effectively, and indeed without inquiring of the EU as to the details.
For the EU, before all the Poles and the Hungarians were,
until yesterday, nevertheless the cold racists who allegedly had no heart for
refugees. Now, Poland alone has taken in 1.2 million refugees. Were the U.S.A.
to do something similar, it would now be approximately eight million. When –
and this would be a decisive question – does the EU Commission actually apologize
for this persistent slander of the Poles and Hungarians? The sometime or other
is now.
It is right: The Poles, Slovaks and Roumanians take in
primarily women and children. The Ukrainian men of course defend their country.
And the Ukrainian women and children do not want a long asylum. Most of them
seek out relatives or friends with whom they can shelter. They thus also want no
state benefits. And that, Frau Johansson, is a fundamental difference with the other,
primarily African migrants. They are for the most part not refugees – who traipses
through 30 peaceful countries is no longer a refugee – but are social migrants
who want to immigrate into the social system. Countries like Poland and Hungary
do not want them, and also not most other countries. The only ones who want
them are, I believe, you and the EU Commission.
These migrants are now unfortunately obstructing the reception
capacities in many countries, especially in Germany, and in my hometown of
Berlin. Berlin needs now create new spaces, yet does not find them. And why is
this the case? On account of your, Frau Johansson, failed, erroneous, blind-to-reality
migration policy.
Thus, my appeal: First, stop with the slandering of the
Poles and the Hungarians. Second, stop with your wretched migration policy. And
third, Frau Johansson, at best stop yourself. In this house here, that would be
best of all.
