"(FR) Mr President, President of the Commission, I support and welcome the Commission’s statement which expresses the political desire to build closer relations with neighbouring countries. I feel, however, that the issue of borders constitutes an element of discord in this climate of rapprochement. We have established a series of measures relating to relations with third countries, particularly our neighbours, in order to integrate the management of the flow of migrants. These concern border controls, the control of illegal immigration and agreements on readmission. I wonder whether we are really in the process of subcontracting the management of migration to our neighbours, so creating a buffer zone between the European Union and the rest of the world, which would probably be less laudable. In my opinion, these measures serve to promote the establishment of detention zones in these neighbouring countries both within and on the borders of Europe. I am referring to zones run in a heavy-handed and arbitrary manner, where the kind of rights enshrined in the founding values we wish to share, are, more often than not, flouted. I would therefore urge you to consider the risks currently involved."@en1
