(Dutch News) Syria is safe enough to stop allowing refugees from there into the Netherlands and to send some back, Geert Wilders, leader of the far-right PVV, said on social media.
As a start, the Netherlands should close its borders to all new arrivals from Syria, Wilders said. The PVV parliamentary party, which is the biggest in parliament, has called on migration minister Marjolein Faber to take action.
[Wilders] said that he would raise the issue during the debate on the government’s 2025 spending plans next month. “I will propose that the Netherlands declares Syria to be (partly) safe, give[s] no more Syrians permanent residency documents and sends back all the Syrians without residency papers,” Wilders said.
