Peter VerhaegheThe European Union has adopted several new rules and directives concerning migration. The aim is to control legal migration and to fight against "illegal" migrants. Various NGOs and even governments, for example in South America, criticise the attitude of the European governments. One of them is Peter Verhaege from the Caritas Europa office in Brussels. Ruth Reichstein asked him how he considers the role of the European Union in the context of global migration.
