EU and asylum policy in numbers

 

According to the latest data, in May 2025, 928,000 foreign citizens or migrants were waiting for their first asylum assistance in the European Union (EU). In the EU, 4.4 million people are already living under international protection. The largest number of people with international protection is said to live in Germany and Poland, although the largest number of foreigners per capita is settled in the Czech Republic.

The largest number of applications for international protection was received in Spain, Italy and France in May 2025. Thus, Germany is slowly losing its attractiveness for those seeking international protection or asylum.

The inhabitants of Syria have long been among the most numerous asylum seekers. But now they have fallen to fourth place. After the fall of the Assad regime and/or the fall of the caliphate, 1.5 million people were expected to return to Syria, but 80% of migrants from Syria do not want to return to their homeland.

This year, the first place in terms of the largest number of asylum seekers was taken by Venezuelans, from where there is actually not much to hear about the state of war. The reasons for migration to the EU are said to be political and economic in nature. The majority of Venezuelans otherwise reside in the so-called Latin American countries, namely Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Chile and Ecuador.

Afghans, where the Taliban rule, still represent an important source of asylum seekers in the EU. In May 2025, 6,500 applications for international protection were filed.

In the last year, the EU has also recorded an increased number of asylum seekers from Bangladesh. In May 2025 alone, the EU received 3,200 applications for international protection. In May 2025, 1,500 migrants from Congo also filed an application for international protection. The number of asylum seekers from Turkey, which would like to be in NATO and the BRICS, has also decreased. In May 2025, 1,200 residents of Haiti also applied for political asylum.

Despite the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, 71% of Ukrainians still intend to stay in their homeland. However, due to the state of war in Ukraine, which has no end in sight, or the peace treaty concluded, the EU has extended temporary protection until March 2027.

According to these figures, the majority of residents in the EU come from countries that are not on the European continent. It is difficult to predict how much the less friendly American migration policy announced and already partially implemented will redirect migration flows to the EU. Especially given the fact that EU countries are increasingly targeted by Russian threats of military attacks, mainly due to their support for Ukraine. And thus the EU is becoming less of an interesting island of security and a targeted migration route.


However, citizens of EU member states can ask themselves where our migration flows to safe areas will go. The predictions of World War 3 predict a global war level without a safe and peaceful island for us, the citizens of the EU and NATO, including America, Canada and Australia. The USA is also exposed to constant threats of military attack, also because of its support for Israel.


The BRICS member states with founding members Russia, China, Brazil and India, and possibly South Africa, are increasingly showing themselves as allies, not only in the economic field, but also as military allies. Perhaps this has also led the recent American policy to stricter criteria for migration flows to the country. Such a migrant safeguard in the EU has not yet been mentioned.

Is BRICKS a threat to the West?

   The artificially created BRICKS currency has been around since 2006. Its function is designed and defined as an attempt to establish a universal currency for international business, which will help BRICKS members to be more secure against the so-called influence of the West. The first group of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa was joined by the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Egypt and Ethiopia in all these years until October 2024. Saudi Arabia is also mentioned. The purpose of this year's meeting of BRICS members was also to increase the number of members, as more than 30 countries were expected to attend the meeting, and they tried to inspire them to accept BRICS in international trade by showing the growth of gross domestic product (GDP) or a measure of economic activity, or one of the indicators of the country's economic development. According to the BRICKS alliance, the G7 (USA, Canada, Japan, France, Italy, Great Britain and Germany) are facing tough times. T...

Which representatives would you vote for?

    We are once again in the time of resounding, glorious elections, when the people chose their representatives. Of course, the selection of people's representatives is always based on how well the candidates presented their programs to the wider masses. Of course, the selection of representatives is also based on what suits the broad masses of voters in these programs . Crowds of voters tend to like hearing stories and promises of their success, prosperity and peace. They are less willing to hear about other people's problems. This was also evident in this year's elections in the USA. A lot of people want to have their own interests and well-being in the first place in their country. Only after their needs are met would they deal with other problems and the well-being of others. Of course, this election story is also conditioned by the existing situation in the country. When a country lives in peace with other countries, it may think about ensuring peace for others as wel...

Politika in draginja

Obeti ali napovedi za letošnje leto spet niso najboljši kot se večkrat pokaže v vsakdanjem življenju. Politični  vrhovi posameznih tako imenovanih razvitih držav so več kot očitno pozabili, da je eden od pogojev za uspešno poslovanje, ki se odraža tudi v naši vsakodnevni košarici za preživetje, pravzaprav obdobje miru, ne pa vojne. Vojno stanje ali vojna nevarnost prinaša namreč dodatne obremenitve državljanov v obrambne namene. Samo vojno stanje pomeni uničevanje, ne samo življenj, ampak tudi premoženja in seveda tudi onemogočeno poslovanje. In seveda tudi manj pritoka denarja v državni proračun in večje državne izdatke. Tako se rušilna in uničevalna narava vojnega stanja projicira v rušilno in uničevalno moč gospodarstva in s tem tudi našega vsakdana. Vojna pomeni pomanjkanje dobrin in s tem tudi draginjo že osnovnih življenjskih potrebščin zaradi uničenja tovarn in polj. Vojna pomeni draga bivališča, saj jih je veliko ali celo večina poškodovanih ali uničenih. Vojna pomeni tudi ...
