Von der Leyen Announces New EU Sanctions Against Migrant Smugglers & Traffickers

Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, presented a new sanctions regime targeting migrant smugglers and traffickers to disrupt their operations and save lives. She emphasized that Europe must decide who enters and under what circumstances.

Today, we are presenting a new sanctions regime against migrant smugglers and traffickers.

We all have a common goal.

To drive them out of business. And to save the lives of thousands of people who dream of a better life.
