Why legal experts are worried about an EU debate on 'return hubs'
Outsourcing the management of migrants is back on the European Parliament's agenda on Wednesday, with EU groups likely to clash over the viability of return centres similar to the one set up under the Italy-Albania deal.
This comes after a Rome court forced the government of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to take back the 16 migrants it had sent to the newly set up detention centre in Albania because of their age, poor health, and unsafe country of origin.
While the country has since elevated its list of safe countries to primary law in an attempt to override looming court cases, it remains unclear whether it will survive future legal challenges to its migration policies.
Join host Giada Santana and politics reporter Nicoletta Ionta as they take a closer look at why the current debate on return hubs is worrying law experts, with the contribution of senior research fellow Sergio Carrera.
