3:13Now PlayingGermany is facing a political storm over its refugee welfare system. Bavarian leader Markus Söder has sparked national controversy by calling for an end to full welfare payments for Ukrainian refugees. In a heated interview with ZDF, Söder revealed that Germany’s citizen’s allowance for Ukrainians will cost €6.3 billion in 2024—nearly 30% of the total welfare budget. He argues that the generous payments are unsustainable and discourage employment among the 1.2 million Ukrainian refugees currently in Germany. Söder wants all Ukrainians to receive reduced asylum-level benefits—a proposal that goes further than the CDU/SPD coalition’s delayed plan to cut payments only for new arrivals after April 2025.
