In the FRG it is believed that the flow of migrants to Europe is gradually weakening. The German government allocated to the land and municipal authorities in 2016 9.3 billion euros for expenses related to refugees. This is reported by the newspaper Rheinische Post with reference to the report, which today, May 24, will be submitted for discussion by the Cabinet of Ministers. Out of this money, 5.5 billion went to support migrants whose applications for granting refugee status are still pending. Another 2 billion euros are earmarked for integration measures, 400 million for building and equipping dormitories, 350 million for supporting minor refugees who arrived in Germany without their parents. In addition, the government of Germany allocated over 11 billion euros for activities that must be eliminated, or at least reduce the reasons for the flight of people from their countries. The coordinator for refugees, the head of the Federal Chancellery, Peter Altmayer, said that the flow of migrants to Europe is gradually weakening. The influx of refugees from Turkey to Greece sharply decreased.

The number of migrants entering Europe via the Mediterranean route from Libya to Italy is not increasing. "Our actions to improve the situation in Libya, Mali and Niger begin to bear the first fruits," said Altmayer. As reported by the correspondent. Net, almost seven million refugees want to go to Europe. The main routes of their movement remain the Balkan and Mediterranean. Source: Russian Service Deutsche Welle.
