The European Union unveiled a new migration proposal on Tuesday aimed at increasing deportations of rejected asylum-seekers.
With data from the European Commission showing that less than 20 percent of people ordered to leave the EU actually depart, the "European System for Returns" plan presented includes establishing controversial "return hubs" in third countries as a solution.
Under the proposal, the European Commission seeks to strengthen the bloc's return system, including expanded powers to detain irregular migrants, reported news agencies.
