Germany plans to put Georgia and Armenia on the list of safe countries, order to accelerate the processing of the asylum applications – According to Deuche Welle German Interior Minister Horst Seehofer made the regarding statement.

According to Stefan Meier, the representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the number of applications from citizens of Georgia and Armenia is high, but positive decisions are made only in relation to a few applications.

“I consider it reasonable to recognize Georgia as a” safe country “, especially because the Georgian government unconditionally supports it,” Meyer said.

According to the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees, in 2017, 3462 citizens of Georgia and 3857 citizens of Armenia applied for asylum.
