00:01A row erupted in Germany's Bundestag over the new European Asylum System GEAS.

00:09Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt wants tougher measures to control illegal migration.

00:15One concept under discussion is deporting migrants to centres in third countries.

00:20There are people who are illegally coming to Europe who have no protection, no permanence,

00:28and have to leave our country again in their homeland or, if this is not possible,

00:34in another, secure third-state.

00:37We consider that in the framework of such a system as useful and also doable.

00:42The AFD's Bernd Baumann considers the idea a fundamentally good one,

00:47but has questioned the SPD's ability to implement it.

00:50Green Party MP Claudia Roth says the concept runs counter to the principle of asylum.

00:53That's a great idea.

00:54It comes from us.

00:55We've done that for years.

00:56But if we want to implement it, then we shouldn't cooperate with the SPD,

00:59who said that this is hell.

01:01That's no case.

01:02And with the EU it's not going to happen.

01:03It's not going to happen.

01:04It's only going to be a national policy,

01:05with the majority of the people who voted in the Bundestag.

01:08They are there.

01:09With the AFD are the majority of the people there.

01:11You can do it all immediately.

01:13You can do it all immediately.

01:14Green Party MP Claudia Roth says the concept runs counter to the principle of asylum.

01:19First of all, I think that we don't forget that in our legislation

01:23there is a right on asylum.

01:25That it has a lot to do with our history.

01:28And this permanent reduction of criminalization of people in the war,

01:35is really wrong.

01:36Left-Party MPs pointed out that third countries are not guaranteed to be safe for migrants.

01:45Every person has human rights, basic rights.

01:47And these are taken to them.

01:49They are thrown into some camps.

01:51And the laws are kept further away.

01:54And the asylum is unknowing.

01:56It actually doesn't exist anymore.

01:58And SPD politicians remain undecided.

02:01There are many points that go in the direction that we have to rule.

02:05There are many points that go in the direction that we need more people's rights.

02:11Control, direction and a firm line is Dobrindt's motto for combating illegal immigration into Germany.

02:17However, with a divided Bundestag, it is unclear how much consensus can be made.

02:22Illegale Migration eindämmen,

02:24that's will with the new European Asylsystem GEARS now finally gelingen.

02:28Darüber wurde im Bundestag hitzig debattiert.

02:31The United States and the Union want more power.

02:34The United States and the Union want more power.

02:35At least due to Rückführungszentren in Drittstaaten.

02:37Also the AfD is for Rückführungszentren.

02:40But she will have to do that,

02:41that the Union will be able to do this in the Tat.

02:44Linke and Grüne are being responsible for the people's rights.

02:47And the SPD is spalten.

02:49Even after the first session shows,

02:51Einigkeit is different.

02:53And the trust in the politics is on the ground.
