AfD interior politician Gottfried Curio claimed Germany's record of over 330,000 naturalizations in 2025 deliberately created 'permanent obstacles to deportation'.

Critics point out that citizenship requires lawful residence, so naturalized people were generally not facing deportation in the first place, making his framing misleading.
