Trump migration crackdown could be ‘new burden’ for Europe, says ICMPD director

Donald Trump’s immigration policies will likely influence the migration policy debate in Europe, the director of the International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD) Michael Spindelegger told Euronews in an interview featured for Radio Schuman today.

During his inauguration speech, US President Donald Trump announced a large-scale nationwide deportation campaign. On Tuesday, his administration began deporting undocumented immigrants from the country. However, several NGOs and international organizations, including the International Center for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD), have raised awareness not only about the extent of Trump’s immigration crackdown but also about its potential to redirect migration flows from the US to Europe and other regions.

Radio Schuman also has a look at today’s European Parliament agenda as well as the safest airlines in Europe.
