Overview
- The draft calls for a 2026 “Abschiebeoffensive,” including deportations on scheduled flights to Syria and Afghanistan and a “return roadmap” that allows forced removals.
- It proposes nationwide departure centers, a dedicated deportation terminal at Munich airport, automatic loss of protection for home‑country trips, and priority removals of criminal offenders.
- The paper seeks broader tightenings such as seizing asylum seekers’ assets to cover stay costs and narrowing the EU free‑movement definition of “worker” to limit access to benefits.
- On Ukrainians, the CSU urges that able‑bodied men contribute to their country’s defense, while the SPD and Left Party criticize the plan and some CDU figures voice caution.
- Separately on energy, the draft revives a push for nuclear research and deployment of small modular reactors alongside work on advanced reactor generations and fusion.
