""a widely shared political wish""
Interior ministers in Brussels greenlighted a package of migration measures that would permit opening centres outside EU borders to which rejected asylum seekers would be sent, impose harsher penalties including longer detention for migrants who refuse to leave, and allow returning migrants to third countries that Europe designates as safe even if they are not countries of origin.

Denmark promoted a rapid push while some member states expressed legal scepticism.
