EU to set up return hubs in third countries

The EU should not overstate its claims, comments tagesschau.de:

“At least it should be upfront about the hurdles that still lie ahead – not to mention the astronomical costs. Germany is doing its utmost to find partner states. But there have been no concrete agreements. And even if contracts are signed, the EU Fundamental Rights Agency will be on the lookout to ensure that the planned facilities do not become lawless spaces. … Even if all this goes ahead, the time will come when every deadline expires – asylum seekers whose applications have been rejected and whose countries of origin refuse to take them back cannot remain in these centres forever. In other words, the EU will have increase the pressure on these uncooperative states. In a nutshell: this resolution is still not a solution.”
