|
| IA-Forum asks: Despite Europe and Latin America's deep connection through immigration, the European Union recently passed a strict set of laws that allows for the imprisonment of illegal aliens for up to 18 months before being deported. How could this affect relations between the EU and Latin America? Additionally, how might Latin America and the European Union's economies be impacted by the recent EU immigration laws?" |
