Twenty countries are pressing on the EU Commission to start sending back Afghans resident illegally in Europe, either voluntarily or by force. Including negotiating with the Taliban.
In a letter addressed to Magnus Brunner the Commissioner of Internal Affairs and Migration, twenty European countries have come together to pressure the European Commission to find ways to send back Afghan nationals who are living illegally in Europe, either voluntarily or by force, according to Belgian minister forAsylum and Migration Anneleen Van Bossuyt on Saturday.
Nice to see Ireland for once advocating for this to happen
The initiative, led by Belgium’s Minister for Asylum and Migration, Anneleen Van Bossuyt, is supported by 18 other countries across the EU and Norway: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia and Sweden.
Fair play to Germany in going a head with this but imagine some countries feel they need permission from the EU to allow to deport these Afghan criminals. The EU really is its own worst enemy, it’s leading Europe toward its own destruction. No wonder Far Right parties are gaining so much support. When nations rely on a trade bloc and its endless bureaucracy to decide whether they can deport criminals, something is fundamentally wrong and it only fuels the rise of the far right.
