EU urged to strengthen child protection in new migration policy

Save the Children is advocating for European Union governments to ensure their upcoming migration policies adhere to EU law and prioritize the safety of children. The organization expresses concern that the EU's Return Regulation, slated for formal adoption in September, could lead to prolonged detention and transfers of migrant and refugee children to unfamiliar countries without adequate safeguards. This appeal highlights potential vulnerabilities for children within the new framework.
