Greece and Germany plan migrant 'return hubs' in safe African countries

Greece and Germany are advancing plans to establish "return hubs" in secure African countries for irregular migrants who cannot be repatriated to their countries of origin, according to Greek Migration Minister Thanos Plevris. This initiative is backed by the European Union.

The announcement was made today, detailing the collaboration between the two nations aimed at addressing the challenges of irregular migration. The proposed return hubs are intended to provide a safe environment for migrants while facilitating their eventual return.

This initiative comes amid ongoing discussions in Europe regarding migration policies and the management of irregular migrants. The establishment of these hubs is part of broader efforts to enhance cooperation among EU member states in managing migration flows.
