Reference News Network, December 10 report, according to the German magazine "Spiegel" website on December 8, the interior ministers of EU member states held a meeting on August 8 and agreed to further tighten migration and asylum laws.
The new regulations provide the possibility of establishing deportation centers in third countries outside the EU.
These so-called "deportation hubs" will accommodate asylum seekers who cannot be returned to their home or country of origin but must leave the EU.
According to the plan, if a person can obtain asylum in a third country recognized as safe by the EU, EU member states have the right to reject his asylum application. Member states unanimously agreed to list candidate countries for EU membership as well as Bangladesh, Colombia, Egypt, India, Kosovo, Morocco, and Tunisia as "safe" countries. The German Federal Ministry of the Interior can also issue an ordinance to incorporate this designation into German law. The German Bundestag has already passed the relevant resolution on the 5th.
However, more than 200 human rights organizations have criticized this. Olivia Sundberg-Dies from Amnesty International called the position reached by EU countries "inhumane," and the concept of deportation centers is "cruel." (Translation/Zhong Sirui)
