CWN Editor's Note: The Commission of the Bishops’ Conferences of the European Union (COMECE) lamented the European Parliament’s decision to develop a migration framework that will increase deportations.
COMECE stated that it is “particularly alarmed by the potential consequences of the adopted position for the dignity and fundamental rights of vulnerable persons. Measures that facilitate returns, expand detention, or externalize responsibilities to third countries raise serious questions about the effective safeguarding of human rights and respect for the dignity of every human person.”
