The Swedish Migration Agency has unveiled a new plan targeting the deportation of thousands of rejected asylum seekers, undocumented migrants, and Dublin Regulation refugees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By the end of 2024, around 7,800 people are expected to be deported voluntarily, with an additional 8,000 deportations projected for 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a statement, the agency clarified that the plan focuses on those whose asylum applications have been withdrawn or rejected, alongside Dublin refugees and illegal migrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maria Mindhammar, Director-General of the Swedish Migration Agency, confirmed the government’s request to expedite deportations, noting efforts to expand return centers and detention facilities to enforce forced removals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Swedish government had also introduced a financial incentive in September, offering 350,000 SEK (around $34,000) to migrants willing to return voluntarily to their home countries in exchange for renouncing their residency or citizenship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These measures aim to reduce the number of refugees in Sweden amid growing pressures on the government to address migration and asylum issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
