Sunak campaigns for joint EU action against illegal migrants Britney Spears has not seen her children for a year

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak wants to call for a common approach against irregular migration at the Council of Europe summit in Iceland.

“It is clear that our current international system is not working and that our communities and the world’s most vulnerable people are paying the price,” Sunak said in a statement late Monday evening. “We need to do more to work together across borders and jurisdictions to end illegal migration and stop the boats.”

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak speaks at a press conference with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the garden of Checkers, the Prime Minister's official country detective.

The number of people coming to Britain via the English Channel, often in small inflatable boats, has increased sharply in recent years. Sunak’s Conservative Party wants to deter migrants with tough laws and deport people who have entered Rwanda irregularly – regardless of their asylum status. This also led to a conflict with the European Court of Human Rights.

Conservative hardliners in the UK called for the repeal of the European Convention on Human Rights. Critics, on the other hand, see the British project as a violation of international obligations.

The UK government has now emphasized the need for an international legal system that empowers states to take the necessary steps. This includes a reform of the so-called Rule 39 of the Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). Last year, judges used this clause to halt a last-minute deportation flight from Britain to Rwanda, sparking fierce criticism from the Conservative British government. Sunak now wants to raise the threshold for interference by the ECtHR in the asylum law. (sda/dpa)
