The Aporia · 5 EU nations plan to send rejected migrants to non-EU ‘return hubs’, target 2027

European Union countries Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Iceland plan to establish non-EU "return hubs" by 2027 to house migrants whose asylum requests have been rejected. The initiative was announced after a meeting in Copenhagen, with five EU nations targeting a total of 6,000 migrants for deportation to these centers. Rights groups are criticizing the plan, arguing that European countries cannot guarantee the rights of migrants will be respected outside the bloc's jurisdiction. Denmark's minister Morten Bodskov defended the plan, stating that international organizations such as the IOM and UNHCR would monitor the conditions in these centers.

Story summary

Five European Union countries - Denmark, Greece, Austria, Germany, and the Netherlands - plan to send rejected migrants to non-EU "return hubs" by 2027, a move that has been criticized by human rights groups. The announcement was made after a one-day meeting in Copenhagen, where the countries agreed to create centers outside of Europe for migrants whose asylum requests have been rejected. According to Denmark's minister of immigration and integration, Morten Bodskov, this is a "fundamental transformation" of the EU's migration and asylum system. However, human rights groups argue that European nations cannot guarantee the rights of migrants will be respected in these centers. The exact location of the return hubs has not been disclosed, but Uganda and Rwanda are seen as possible host countries.
