Germany’s native birth rate has fallen to its lowest level in nearly 30 years, while births to foreign mothers now account for over half of all newborns, according to new official data.
The figures, published by Germany’s Federal Statistical Office, confirm a trend that for years was dismissed as a conspiracy theory: the German people are on their way to becoming a minority in their homeland, thanks to the collapse in birth rates among German citizens, coupled with the steady increase in births among foreign women and mass immigration.
According to the latest official data, only 677,117 children were born in Germany last year, a 2% drop compared to the previous year. The figure alone is alarming, but it becomes even more so when broken down by the mother’s origin: women with German citizenship have a fertility rate of just 1.23 children per woman, the lowest in nearly three decades. Meanwhile, women with foreign citizenship maintain a rate of 1.84.
The decline in birth rate does not affect everyone equally. Today, births to non-German mothers already exceed 50% of the total. And if the trend continues, by 2070, eight out of ten births in Germany will be to foreign mothers. So warns Thilo Sarrazin, former member of the Bundesbank’s board and author of the bestselling book ‘Deutschland schafft sich ab’ (Germany Is Abolishing Itself), published in 2010 and more relevant today than ever.
In recent remarks reported by Remix News, Sarrazin reflected on his predictions.
Back then, I calculated that Germans would become a minority in their own country within a few decades, but reality has accelerated. What was supposed to happen in 2100 will now happen in 2070 or even earlier.
The rise in immigration since 2015 has rendered earlier cautious forecasts obsolete: instead of the 50,000 to 100,000 net annual arrivals assumed by official models, Germany has averaged 500,000 new immigrants per year, mostly from Muslim-majority countries outside the European Union.
The demographic breakdown makes the trend unmistakably clear. Only 15% of those over 65 have a migrant background. Among 15-year-olds, that figure shoots up to 45%. The transformation is generational, irreversible, and—according to many—engineered by the elites who govern with an ideologically driven vision blind to reality.
Can this situation be reversed? In theory, yes, but the political will is nowhere to be found. The desire to have children among Germans remains close to two per family, but the social, economic, and cultural conditions do not allow it. There is a lack of stability, affordable housing, work-life balance, and a family-friendly environment. The overload of public services, rising living costs, and perceived insecurity in many urban neighborhoods are causing more and more native couples to postpone—or abandon—the idea of having children.
Meanwhile, the influx of immigrants continues to multiply, placing even more pressure on state resources and contributing to a demographic replacement that, although systematically denied by mainstream media and the political class, can no longer be hidden.
In the end, mathematics does not understand political correctness. And Germans are witnessing in real time how the future of their own country is slipping through their fingers. The so-called “replacement theory” was not a paranoid fantasy. It was a warning. And, like all ignored warnings, it is coming true with devastating accuracy.

This is such a sad, depressing thing to witness. I have no words.
