EU to set up return hubs in third countries

Apparently there are no more taboos in the fight against migration, the Frankfurter Rundschau observes with consternation:

“Cooperation with the inhumane Taliban in Afghanistan? There is no alternative. Bolstering regimes like Libya’s? As long as they take in our refugees. Protecting children and families? Not that important. Forcing people to stay in countries with which they have no connection? Detaining people who haven’t committed any crimes? There’s no alternative. And last but not least: cooperation with the far-right AfD? Apparently this is no longer a problem for the CDU/CSU. All of this is evident in the decisions of EU bodies. But for those who uphold human rights and the rule of law, this is cause for despair.”
