The chairman of the parliamentary group of the Bavarian CSU in the Bundestag, Alexander Dobrindt, calls for Ukrainian war refugees to return to their country of origin, when they cannot find work in Germany. The Greens and the SPD react with harsh criticism.

The CSU, the Christian Social Union, the CDU's sister party, has called for Ukrainian war refugees to return to their country of origin if they cannot find work in Germany. "More than two years after the start of the war, the principle must be applied: start work in Germany or return to the safe areas of western Ukraine," CSU parliamentary group leader Alexander Dobrindt told Bild am Sonntag newspaper. ".

The SPD and the Greens strongly criticized this request. SPD caucus deputy chairman Dirk Wiese told the newspaper that Russian President Vladimir Putin is constantly bombing targets across Ukraine. "Dobrindti now wants to bring back there women and children, who may have lost their parents at the front," Wiese said. "The CSU should be ashamed of such demands and should remove the 'C' for 'Christian' from its name once and for all."

Nouripour: "Legal obstacles don't help, they hurt"

Greens co-leader Omid Nouripour said: "The insinuation that Ukrainians come to us to get financial compensation for the citizen ignores the horror of Putin's war." Nouripouri also rejected CDU/CSU proposals not to immediately grant the Ukrainians the citizen's compensation, but to put them through the usual asylum procedure first. "Of course we need to enable Ukrainians to work even faster," he said. "But the new legal obstacles, as the CDU wants, do not help, but harm".

Several German state interior ministers have recently called for an end to citizens' compensation for war refugees from Ukraine and for them to be given only lower payments under the Asylum Seekers' Benefits Act. The German government has already rejected this.

SPD: "Populist nonsense"

Dobrindt joined criticism of the current regulations. According to the CSU politician, the compensation of citizens was conceived as quick help in the beginning of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, but it has long since turned into a brake to work. He has kept many people from Ukraine on welfare.

Martin Rosemann, an SPD politician specializing in the labor market, also pointed out in "Bild am Sonntag" that many of the Ukrainian refugees are single mothers: "The obstacles for Ukrainian refugees to start working are the lack of nurseries, the lack of knowledge of German and the difficulty in recognizing professional qualifications". He described the proposal for their transition from citizen's compensation to the asylum procedure as "populist nonsense"./ DW
