Asylum summit in Central Saxony: Crisis threatens without an emergency reserve!

Alarming messages from Central Saxony! The first distribution center for refugees in Waldheim will be closed on March 31, 2025! This decision comes after an asylum summit between the district administration and the municipalities, in which no agreement on the redistribution of asylum seekers could be reached. The situation in the cities of Freiberg, Döbeln and Hainichen is becoming increasingly tense, and the closure of the center could further tighten the situation.

The district administration justifies the drastic step with the "high cost structure" of the center. This means that the important reserves for emergencies in the recording of asylum seekers and Ukrainian war refugees will be eliminated in the future. There are currently 140 people who are now facing an uncertain future. The closure could have far -reaching consequences for the affected refugees who are dependent on support.

a worrying trend

The decision to close the first distribution center shows the increasing challenges with which the municipalities in middle saxony are faced. The persistent refugee crisis and the associated costs pose major problems for those responsible. Without a clear strategy for the redistribution of asylum seekers, there is a further escalation of the situation in the region.
