EU lawmakers vote to make it easier to set up migrant detention centers outside the bloc
European lawmakers have approved a plan that makes it easier to send rejected asylum seekers to new detention centers outside the EU.
European lawmakers voted Thursday to ease the setting up of new migrant detention centers outside the European Union, known as “return hubs.”
Already, Greece, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Denmark have entered into negotiations with governments mainly in Africa to host sites to hold migrants denied asylum.
