The Dutch right-wing government is adopting new discriminatory policies against refugees through the planned "Emergency Regulation Law," citing a manufactured crisis despite refugee numbers being lower than official estimates.

The repressive measures focus on reducing residence permit duration from five to three years, canceling permanent permits, and preventing family reunification for adult children and future life partners.

The law specifically targets Syrian refugees through a plan to declare areas in Syria "safe" in preparation for refugee deportation, ignoring real threats to their lives.

Authorities plan to build 100 new cells to detain those they describe as "infiltrators," and force refugees to accept any housing imposed on them, in a blatant violation of their human dignity.

Amsterdam seeks to tighten border control with Germany and Belgium by the end of November, while reducing its UN refugee quota from 500 to 200 people.

The government deliberately inflates the "refugee crisis" despite estimates indicating only 50,000 asylum seekers arriving in 2024, with a housing crisis resulting from poor government planning.

The cancellation of compensation for delayed asylum application processing reveals a systematic approach to humiliate refugees and push them to leave voluntarily, clearly disregarding the Netherlands' international obligations in protecting human rights.
