In 2014, Albania, Kosovo and Serbia, despite Green Resistance, were declared by Germany as safe places for refugee returns. As a result, asylum seekers from these countries would have no chance of gaining asylum. And, as a compromise, official Berlin had accepted a solution that would enable a number of denied asylum seekers, coming to Germany, writes Süddeutsche Zeitung. But now no longer as refugees but as legally employed.

Within the next two years, some 400,000 citizens of these three countries have made this experience, broadcast albinfo.ch. The first three-year compromise proved to be a good and practical solution, as employment opportunities, but also as preventing refugee flows from the Balkans to Germany.

Vow for this success has been the work of two state agents: GIZ (The Society for International Co-operation) and BA ( Federal Labour Agency). They jointly at their so-called “Centres for Advising Migrants” in Kosovo, Albania and Serbia make counseling and orientation of those who want to go legally to work in Germany.

Thea Decker works in BA and is responsible for international co-operation. She says a prevention of refugees has been achieved from the very countries from which there have been more economic refugees, explains albinfo.ch. It speaks of a fantastic “ ” and when it says so, it is not only about the need for Balkans to work in Germany but also about the need German employers have for workers. It is the interest of employers that has caused applicants from these three countries to lack even special qualifications to come to Germany.

If you appear at one of the noted bureaus, BA in Germany finds an employer who is interested in employing someone and then earning the job permit, with the option of continuing it. Decker says there is more need in the deficit professions in Germany as care for the elderly and the sick, writes albinfo.ch. But electricalists and other craftsmen are also required.

About 40 thousand people have come this way within two years from Kosovo, Serbia and Albania as the trend shows growth. This is also evidence that co-ordination between GIZ and BA has worked well. And a success of this co-operation is the fact that it becomes clear to people from these countries that asylum ventures would cost them much more and would offer no chance for success.

From the start, GIZ has invested about 500,000 euros annually in four offices. GIZ also helps refugees returning to the countries mentioned after Germany's refusal to integrate faster and more successfully.
