Sweden Gives Bad News to Migrants

Sweden has spent its resources to get more asylum seekers after the flow of refugees in 2015, the local Finance Minister has said, suggesting that migrants and refugees may have better luck in another EU country.

“Integration is not functioning properly. This didn't work until the autumn of 2015, but for me it's clear that we can't expect more than we are able to integrate “, Magdalena Andersson told Dagens Nyheter. “This is not good for people who come here and it is not good for society in general. ”

In 2015, at the peak of the refugee crisis in Europe, some 163,000 people sought asylum in Sweden, according to the national migration agency.

“We have to make sure that we never end up in such a situation as we were in the fall of 2015”, Andersson said, adding that the country is experiencing severe housing shortages and, as a result, lack of teachers.

The focus now should be on those who have the right to stay in Sweden to equip them with work and accommodation, as well as to provide needed education for children, the minister said.

Migrants and refugees will be <x0 useier if they go to another country”, Andersson said. Those who come to the Nordic country will face a very tense “situation, he warned.
