SECTORAL POLICIES / Migration

“forcing asylum seekers into a territory will never work”, says Fabienne Keller, European Parliament rapporteur on Dublin Regulation

Fabienne Keller (Renew Europe, France) is the European Parliament rapporteur on the Dublin 3 Regulation, which determines the responsibility of Member States in processing asylum applications. She will assess this in a report to be presented in mid-March. As the Commission prepares a long-awaited Pact on Migration and Asylum for this spring, the former mayor of Strasbourg takes stock for EUROPE of what she thinks the Commission should focus on. (Interview by Solenn Paulic)
