Statewatch | EU wants to deport people to countries with which they have no connection
www.statewatch.org
A German diplomatic cable obtained by Statewatch shows that 11 member states would like to be able to deport people to any country they wish – even if the person has no connection to it. The demands have been accommodated in the most recent version of the proposed law on “safe third countries.” The cable also shows plans to remove the “suspensive effect” of appeals against deportation, while refugee resettlement pledges from member states are lower than ever.

A German diplomatic cable obtained by Statewatch shows that 11 member states would like to be able to deport people to any country they wish – even if the person has no connection to it.

While most member states were on board with the Commission’s proposals, 11 member states support deleting the connection criteria altogether: Austria, Bulgaria, Czechia, Cyprus, Finland, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland and Slovakia.

    In Sweden the youtube channel of the far-right party (second largest party in polls) have like 4ish years back said stuff like that they want to deport people to china (for some fucking reason) for writing political messages in washable crayons publically. Since then they have been invited to collaborate with the government, so, yeah.
