- Summary
- Operational experience of Red Cross National Societies as well as many reports on the situation of migrants outside EU borders have shown that the action taken by numerous EU Member States to prevent the illegal entry of migrants has not only an effect on irregular migration, but also seriously affects potential asylum seekers who are on their way to seek international protection in EU countries.
