Germany wants EU to adopt ‘Rwanda-style’ migrant programme
The TelegraphGermany is reportedly pushing the EU to adopt a British-style deal in which asylum seekers would be deported to Rwanda while their case is dealt with. Berlin is playing a “leading role” in advocating for a deal with a non-EU state in order to filter out migrants who have little chance of being granted asylum, Die Welt newspaper reported. While hardliners like Austria and Hungary want asylum seekers to be deported to an African partner country regardless of where they come from, Berlin is said to want to limit this process to people who have spent time in the countries they would be exported to while their asylum application is considered. Berlin is walking a tightrope during EU negotiations on a new migrant system as backbenchers in Olaf Scholz’s coalition worry that the purpose of the deal is to deter refugees from coming to Europe.
