In just twenty years, 35 percent of Germany’s population will be comprised of migrants or individuals with migrant roots, according to projections made by a German migration expert.
At the same time, those with migrant backgrounds are expected to make up 70 percent of the inhabitants living in large cities by 2040, Deutsche Welle reports.
Professor Herbert Brücker, the lead migration researcher at the Federal Institute for Employment Research (IAB), declared earlier this week that Germany ‘will become more diverse’.
“Currently, about a quarter of the people in German have a migrant background,” Brücker said. “In 20 years, it will be at least 35%, but could also be more than 40%.”
Brücker, an economics professor at the University of Bamberg, also notes that the proportion of migrants inhabiting German cities is likely to be higher.
“What we see in the big cities today will be normal for the country as a whole in the future. In a city like Frankfurt, we’ll have between 65% to 70%.”
For Brücker, in order to keep Germany’s robust economy ‘stable, the country will have to attract a broad ‘range of nationalities’. The IAB suggests that 400,000 new migrants will have to be imported each year until 2060 to keep the economy from contracting.
As for vast swaths of the German population that would like to preserve their cultural heritage and ethnoreligious identity, their opinions are seemingly unimportant and irrelevant. What truly matters for Brücker and neoliberal globalists like him is that the economy remains strong at all costs.
