European Union member states definitively approved a tightening of migration policy on Thursday. The approved rules also include the option of setting up return centers in so-called third countries for migrants located on the territory of union member states. forum24.cz ↗
The new measures represent a further step in the EU's efforts to adjust the procedure for migration and returns of persons who do not have residence permits. Return centers outside the territory of the union are meant to be designated for handling migrant cases before their potential return to their country of origin or another country outside the EU.
Member states agreed on the tightening of rules within the framework of a common migration policy. The approval of the measures follows negotiations on options for making returns more efficient while also creating a more unified procedure among union countries. respekt.cz ↗
Closer conditions for the operation of return centers, as well as the list of countries in which they could be established, have not yet been specified. Nor are the specific steps that individual member states will take following the definitive approval of the rules known.
Further developments will depend on the implementation of the new measures and on the EU's cooperation with third countries. The approved rules are meant to affect the procedure of member states in handling cases of migrants without residence authorization.
