Citizenship - More deportations: Left party demands winter deportation stop
The number of deportations in Hamburg has increased significantly. In the third quarter of this year, 104 deportees were deported to their countries of origin, according to a Senate response to a question from Carola Ensslen, the Left Party's migration expert in the parliament. Compared to the second quarter, the figures have more than doubled.
According to the Senate, 50 people were deported between April and June, compared to 52 in the first quarter. 68 deportations in the third quarter of last year were also significantly fewer than this year.
In view of the figures, Ensslen was "shocked by the 'enthusiasm for deportations' in the public debate". It's not about numbers and statistics, but about people's fates, she said on Tuesday. "Many refugees who are deported to Eastern European countries are exposed to discrimination, marginalization and homelessness with their eyes open."
The victims are often school-age children - their number increased almost tenfold in the third quarter compared to the first three months. "Children can't help it if their parents are not allowed to work or are ill. Nevertheless, they are liable for their parents, so to speak. This is deeply unjust," said Ensslen. The situation in the countries of origin becomes even worse in the winter months. "We are therefore calling for an immediate stop to winter deportations."

The Left Party in Hamburg has proposed a stop to winter deportations, citing concerns about the welfare of refugees who might face discrimination, marginalization, and homelessness in their countries of origin. The increase in deportations, particularly affecting school-aged children, has sparked concern, as these individuals are often not responsible for their parents' circumstances.
Citizenship and migration are at the forefront of Hamburg's political discourse, with the Left Party advocating for the protection of refugees, including those at risk of being deported during harsh winter months.
