What happened

The European Union has moved forward with a vast overhaul of its migration policy, aiming to ramp up deportations and ink controversial deals to build detention centers abroad.

Why it matters

Rights groups have criticized it, comparing the new regulations to the Trump administration's aggressive immigration policies.

Common ground

Speaking with FRANCE 24's Mark Owen, Camille Le Coz, Director of the Migration Policy Institute of Europe, says that the way the policy has been framed in the EU law "is to make it compatible with international law".
