The European Union wants to impose new measures on Morocco regarding irregular migration, such as the return of migrants from third countries, in exchange for more financial aid and visa facilities for Moroccans, according to a confidential EU document, discussed last week.
In 2019, Dutch-Moroccans’ access to the labor market improved, but the group remains over-represented in crime, according to the annual report of the Netherlands Central Bureau of Statistics.
More than 1,000 irregular migrants have arrived in the Canary Islands archipelago (Spain) during the past two weeks. Moroccan Hazam Tarik documented on Instagram this crossing, considered much more risky than that of the Strait of Gibraltar.
