"Resettlement in the East" or "Deporting to the East" were Nazi German euphemisms for the forced removal of German jews to concentration camps and extermination camps during the Holocaust.

Resettlement refers to Nazi beliefs about "racial purity" and Nazi ideologies concerning ethnic and language uniformity within nation states; Jews, as "non-Aryan" aliens, were to expelled from the German body politic and the presence of the German Volk, lest they pollute Germans either by contagion of "decadent" Jewish belief (cf. "jewish science") or by miscegenation that would pollute "pure German blood".
