EU creates legal basis for migrant deportation centres in third countries

The EU has established a legal framework allowing member states to run controversial deportation centres in third countries. Germany pushed for the measure, and Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt said he hopes a first agreement with a third country can be reached before the end of this year. The plan has drawn criticism from human rights groups and migration policy observers.
Why now: The EU's move to externalise asylum processing is a major and contested shift in European migration policy.
