French police clear out Paris migrants camp

PARIS (Reuters) - Police began evacuating hundreds of migrants living in makeshift camps in Paris on Wednesday, as European politicians continue to tackle the issue of refugees, which has fuelled the rise of far-right parties in the continent.

 

Reuters Television pictures showed scores of migrants, from the "Millenaire" camp next to a canal in northeast Paris, waiting to be escorted to temporary accommodation centres. Riot police were also on standby as the evacuation took place.

 

France has undertaken previous measures to clear out migrant camps in Paris, only for new camps to spring up again.

 

Europe has faced a migrant crisis since 2015 following wars in Libya and Syria, and more than 1 million people from Africa and the Middle East have tried to reach the continent via Turkey or by sea.

 

French President Emmanuel Macron's government has said it wants to be both firm and fair on immigration but it took a tougher stance lately, with parliament approving a bill that tightens asylum rules.

Give them all EU passports and ship them off to the UK as a two fingered salute.

It's never a good idea to let these situations get very far along.   People need to be screened reasonably quickly and either resettled or returned in a timely fashion.   Some may not be refugees but can't be returned for a variety of reasons and they need to be dealt with in a humane manner.  

 

It is much harder to deal with these situations when people have remained in these situations for a long time.   Stuff happens, they have kids, they marry/cohabit with someone from another country and other things that start making it a humanitarian nightmare to repatriate them.

The area was becoming a no man's zone. Besides France has enough of poverty and unemployment to deal with amongst it's own inhabitants.

 

Those who sincerely have lost everything due to the wars, should be assisted to go back home, with financial assistance for a new start, funded by the countries engaged in the casus beli coalition.

 

Plainly deporting them, with no financial aids to re-start, bears the risk to create new recruits for the many fanatical terror cells in those regions.

In the past, there were a number of NGO's who worked in such areas as job training, micro-credit and other areas for returnees.   I doubt that Syria is anywhere stable enough, but for many of the African countries as well as some areas of Afghanistan and Iraq should be safe enough to accommodate returnees.

The hypocrisy will be stunning

A total of 170 migrants were due to be transferred to tents that have been set up in the wealthy 16th arrondissement, where Nicolas Sarkozy, the former president, and his wife, the singer-songwriter Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, have a home.

How many days will it take before they are moved again ?

In 2017 there were approx 100k asylum applications lodged in France, average three months to process, of which 36% were approved. So around 60% would be subject to deportation with 15,000 forcibly deported in last year's reporting period. Largest group by nationality were Albanian followed by Afghans.

Thailand puts you in IDC for eternity. Or without papers, pushes you out to int'l waters on a raft, gives

you some Mama noodles and bids you good luck on your journey back from whence you came. Law of the jungle. 

 

It is not a very humanitarian approach to immigration, but is a good deterrent to those seeking to suckle on the teat of a foreign nation and people. 

 

Therefore, Thailand is not a top destination for faux asylum seekers.

 

That being said, Thailand does do lots as a transit country for N. Koreans who have legitimate asylum claims in S. Korea ( if one is fortunate enough to survive the journey). 

I.e. Thailand is happy to facilitate processing N Koreans for repatriation to the South (in coordination with the S Korean embassy), but will not grant refugee status to them en masse.

 

It is called protecting your borders and nation through immigration legislation/regulations and enforcing the law. 

 

Canada is in a heap of trouble due to their virtue signalling PM inviting the entire world via Twitter to live for free at the expense of hard-woking taxpaying citizens who struggle to make ends meet each month. 

 

If I am correct in the law, his Tweet may have usurped and contravened Canadian immigration policy, law and associated regulations.

 

The Canadian people should be taking him to task for this in the SCC. Charges of over-stepping his mandate as an elected official of the Confederation without consent of Parliament. I.e. making up immigration policy on his own without consent of the people to get more likes on Twitter...(which should be a crime in itself IMHO).

Facts are useful as opposed to uninformed opinion. As of 2015 both Russia and China hosted approx 300k refugees each. Whilst Japan nearly always turns down asylum applications, Japan is the world's 4th largest donor to UNHCR.

China? More a reputation for forced repatriation of refugees from North Korea.

True, from my reading ethnic Chinese from places such as Burma & Vietnam.

I Agree , Let the rest of the world take note of this.

Sadly, I agree.

 

Edit - Europe has become a 'soft touch' haven for economic and radical 'refugees'.

 

It's obvious that Europe citizens have had enough of economic refugees - whether from other european countries or those from other countries declaring themselves as 'refugees'....

That is one of the reasons why the U.K. is leaving the E.U.
