• Interior Ministers of 15 EU countries send a letter to the Commission requesting stricter measures towards migration.
• Participating states advocate the creation of centres in non-EU countries to house people rescued at sea.
• They propose to maintain and deepen migration management outsourcing agreements with countries like Tunisia, Turkey, and Egypt.
• The letter suggests a reevaluation of the safe country concept.
• The immigration debate will intensify in upcoming European elections, with repressive messages notably dominant.
• Many Europeans reject the idea of outsourcing migration responsibility to third countries where human rights may not be guaranteed.

Conclusion: The regressive direction of immigration policies and the outsourcing of migration responsibility reinforces a wrongful and conflictual picture of immigration.
