@politico.eu reports that the EU considers withdrawing trade benefits if a third country refuses to cooperate on readmission. While the EU seems to be more determined this time, this line of thinking is actually not new at all from a longitudinal perspective.

Towards a Fairer EU Asylum Policy: Lessons from the Dublin system for the EU’s Solidarity Mechanism
On 11 November 2025, the European Commission released its first European Annual Asylum and Migration Report as part of the new policy cycle introduced by the EU’s Pact on Migration and Asylum. The Commission examined the asylum, migration and reception situation across the EU and found that four member states are under ‘migratory pressure’, and 14 others either ‘at risk’ or facing a ‘significant migration situation’.
