UK to return some migrants to France within weeks, PM says

The UK government has announced a new agreement with France to return some migrants who have crossed the English Channel. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak stated that this "one in, one out" deal would demonstrate to potential migrants that attempting to reach the UK via the Channel would be futile. The agreement aims to deter individuals from making the dangerous Channel crossing, which has resulted in numerous deaths. Under the deal, the UK will be able to return some migrants to France within a matter of weeks. The prime minister emphasized that the new policy is part of the government's broader efforts to address the complex issue of illegal immigration. The details of the agreement, including the specific number of migrants to be returned and the logistics involved, are still being finalized between the UK and French authorities. The announcement has drawn mixed reactions, with some welcoming the move as a step towards managing the migration crisis, while others have raised concerns about the humanitarian implications and the legality of the proposed measures.
