Summary
The idea of "remigration," which promotes the forced return of ethnic minorities, is gaining attention in U.S. Republican circles as well as among European far-right groups. Originally linked to Nazi Germany, remigration is part of a broader conspiracy theory known as the "Great Replacement," which claims that non-white people are intentionally replacing white populations. The U.S. State Department has considered creating a department for remigration, and discussions have appeared in government forums.
