What exactly Germany's done? This is a historic decision with disastrous consequences

At a tense meeting of representatives of the federal authorities, led by Chancellor Olaf Scholz, with the prime ministers of 16 German states, a resolution was agreed upon, in which it is written that "the Federal Government will investigate whether the determination of the protection status of refugees can be carried out during their transit in third countries".
Some German media, such as Bild, are already celebrating the progress in tightening the policy towards immigrants, but at the moment, it is still unclear how quickly the new rules could be implemented, according to which the procedure for obtaining asylum should be started and completed outside the borders of the EU.
Any immigrant who did not receive asylum before entering the EU would be deported outside the EU by the German authorities in the future.
As reported by Jutarnji list, these new rules will affect the behavior of migrants, increase the pressure on other countries (within and outside the EU), and it is uncertain whether in the short term it can cause panic among the refugee population, perhaps even a humanitarian disaster. Along with Chancellor Scholz, the Minister of Economy Robert Habeck and Minister of Finance Christian Lindner participated in the meeting with the Prime Ministers of 16 states.
It was not only the fundamental issue (where the procedure for seeking asylum should be initiated) that was discussed, but also a series of new rules, which as a common denominator have stricter rules for immigrants, but also the most important - the rules for financing the acceptance of migrants.
All these changes in the German treatment of migrants actually define the demographic and economic future not only of Germany, but also of Europe.

They will not even set...
