The EU isn’t serious about tackling the migrant crisis – The Spectator

Category: Migrant Crisis

Robert Jenrick is right: the EUs New Pact on Migration and Asylum is not worth the paper its written on. The former immigration minister, who resigned earlier this month, is not the first European politician to rubbish the treaty, which was unveiled on Wednesday with much fanfare. Jordan Bardella, the president of the National Rally in France, said that his party willoppose with all our strength this mad project of organised submersion of Europe.

The Pact has been years in the making and according to Brussels involved intense discussions between the 27 Member States. When Commission president Ursula von der Leyen announced details of the deal, she boasted that it means that Europeans will decide who comes to the EU and who can stay, not the smugglers. It means protecting those in need.

The Italian government, who this year have seen over 150,000 migrants land on their shores an increase of over 50,000 on 2022 also expressed their satisfaction with the pact.
