EU adopts strictest migration rules, extending detention to two years and creating external return hubs

The European Union has adopted new migration regulations including pre-entry screening lasting up to seven days and extended detention periods from six months to two years, according to Al Jazeera reporting. The pact establishes 'return hubs' outside EU borders and requires member states to either relocate migrants from border countries or contribute $23,000 per person to a shared fund.
