Hardly any other issue divides Europe more than migration policy. Since the refugee crisis in 2015, the EU's attitude has changed: from a welcoming culture to a policy of isolation. The documentary by Julia Rech and Ulf Röller examines the question of whether human rights are being neglected in the EU's new isolation policy. They look into the engine room of Brussels, at Europe's external borders and in the transit countries. The authors accompany EU Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson in Brussels and Berlin. Johansson wants to make the migration pact a success. Alongside the German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser, she also visits the Tegel reception center in Berlin, which is overflowing with more than 4,000 refugees. Many come from Ukraine, they are waiting for an apartment, some for over a year. A life in tent cities, in a small cabin with 13 other people and two dogs. The bunk bed is their only private space. Tegel shows the human dimension of migration policy and the need to find humane and fair solutions for everyone involved. _____ Here on ZDFheute Nachrichten you can find out what is happening in the world and what concerns us all: We provide insight into the world of news, explain the background and address social debates.
