The European Union has reached a provisional agreement to overhaul its migration policy, focusing on faster deportations and the creation of detention centers in non-EU countries. - The deal was struck between the European Commission, Council, and Parliament during a trilogue on Monday.
- At least five EU nations are in talks with African countries to host 'return hubs' similar to Italy's deal with Albania. - Human rights groups compare the policy to Trump-era immigration enforcement, warning of increased detention and deportation risks.
- The agreement now awaits approval from EU lawmakers and heads of state, expected to pass quickly.
