CSU's Dobrindt Pushes for Stricter EU Migration Controls
Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) has called for tougher measures in EU migration policy. He hosted a zoom meeting in Munich with European counterparts to discuss stricter controls and deportation rules. Dobrindt proposed indefinite detention for criminals and 'dangerous persons' in deportation custody.
Dobrindt wants to accelerate asylum procedures and limit the suspensive effect of appeals. He believes individual states should take the lead if Brussels is too slow in migration policies. The migration movie meeting, attended by ministers from several European countries and the EU Commissioner for Migration, focused on cooperation with some EU states advancing return hubs independently from EU-wide initiatives.
Dobrindt plans to establish return centers close to the countries of origin for rejected asylum seekers. He also suggested using artificial intelligence as a digital translation aid in asylum procedures. No final declaration was issued after the meeting.
Dobrindt's proposals aim to strengthen migration controls and deportation rules within the EU. His suggestions include indefinite detention for certain individuals, faster asylum procedures, and independent state action on return centers. The use of AI for translation in asylum procedures was also discussed.
