On Wednesday, the European Union released a list of seven nations labeled as 'safe': Kosovo, Bangladesh, Colombia, Egypt, India, Morocco, and Tunisia. This designation is part of the EU's efforts to accelerate the return of migrants, as many member states are grappling with significant backlogs of asylum applications. EU Commissioner for Migration, Magnus Brunner, noted the urgency for faster asylum decisions, while Italian Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi hailed the new regulation as a victory for the Italian government's bilateral and multilateral initiatives.
