EU Leaders Discuss New Migration Policies

European leaders are increasingly adopting hardline migration policies as anti-immigrant sentiment rises, drawing parallels to former U.S. President Donald Trump's rhetoric. The EU has shifted from welcoming migrants to discussing measures like speedier deportations and processing centers outside its borders, reflecting a significant shift since the 2015 migration crisis. Countries like Italy, Poland, and Hungary are proposing stricter asylum regulations, with some even suggesting the suspension of asylum rights. Young Moroccans, facing visa rejections, are increasingly attempting irregular crossings to Europe, highlighting the desperation among potential migrants. Upcoming EU meetings aim to address these issues, with a focus on innovative solutions and operational coordination among member states. The recent surge of support for far-right parties further complicates the bloc's approach to migration, emphasizing the need for tougher policies.
