Germany calls for changes to EU?s human rights safeguards so migrants can be returned to ?unsafe? states | National Post
This may be a coming trend in some 1st world countries that are faced with substantial numbers of illegal immigrants.
Canada may have to renegotiate with the US the safe country agreement. Those that cross from the US to Canada by simply avoiding border check points are able under Canadian Law to claim refugee status, if their country of origin is deemed unsafe. Mexico is not deemed unsafe by the Canadian Govt.
This would be used for unusual influxes (substantial numbers as seen the other year) of illegal immigrants entering the EU. Similar in policy to Australia. where illegals are held in camps in other countriesGermany has called for the European Union to scrap human rights safeguards so migrants can be deported to countries currently considered unsafe.
Under the plan, asylum seekers who cross the Mediterranean illegally could be sent back to “transit” countries such as Libya, Tunisia, and Algeria while their cases are considered.
The proposals come as a leaked German government paper warned that as many as 5.9 million people could seek to enter the EU from countries around the Mediterranean.
