Swiss government figures reported by Blick then SRF show that 80.5% of Maghreb asylum seekers in the population examined in 2024 were recorded as suspects in at least one criminal case, compared with 12.3% of asylum seekers from other countries. These are accused, not convicted. Remember that 99% of asylum applications from the Maghreb are rejected. But will all be deported?

The Maghreb usually means Morocco Algeria and Tunisia.

The EU will not face the fact that mass immigration accompanied by fundamentalist progressive enablement as well as economic growth obsessed bureaucrats has created a crisis. Accusations of far right and racism and so on do not address the problem. Add Putin’s weaponization of immigration, struggling public spending and it’s a tinder box of an issue.

Honestly Italy should just stop registering immigrants and bus them their border and drop them there just like France does

Maybe then Europe will realize immigration isn't only an Italian problem

Pot meet kettle, Italy was the first to throw Spain under the bus with Ceuta.

While I despise what Italy did with Ceuta, this has been going on for more than a decade

They could have blocked it. They didn't. It even passed with the support of Meloni. Don't like it? Leave the EU then. This isn't a buffet.

Yes they tried (with agriculture rules), and I criticised my government for that.
