The European Commission and Sweden organized a technical meeting in Brussels on Tuesday, with fifteen European Union member states, including Belgium, participating. This discussion focused on the return of Afghans and involved representatives of the Taliban regime. The primary goal of this meeting was to establish practical agreements on the procedures for the repatriation of Afghan citizens.
Context of the Consultations
The consultations in Brussels follow previous discussions on migration and asylum within the EU. Belgium's participation and that of other member states, as reported by L'Echo politique, underscore ongoing efforts to manage international migration flows in an orderly manner. The talks with the Taliban were technical in nature, focusing on logistical and procedural aspects of returns.
