EU seeks to relax rules on turning away asylum-seekers
On Tuesday, the EU unveiled plans to relax the rules on sending asylum-seekers to third countries in the latest reform aimed at reducing migration to the bloc. The European Commission said it proposed broadening the so-called "safe third country" concept, which allows member states to "consider an asylum application inadmissible when applicants could receive effective protection" elsewhere.
