European Offshoring Asylum Seekers Faces Setback After Court Ruling

The European Court of Justice ruled that asylum seekers can only be sent to offshore detention centers if their countries of origin are proven safe through effective judicial review, challenging the EU's plans to expand offshore deportation schemes like Italy's controversial centers in Albania. This decision may impact upcoming EU asylum regulations and has elicited mixed reactions from European leaders, with some criticizing the ruling as a setback for migration control.
