The right wing, which is following in Vannacci\u2019s footsteps, wants to deport migrants wherever it sees fit, preferably out of the public eye, while this Commission wants to transform Frontex into the European Agency for Returns as part of an increasingly ruthless deportation policy,\u201d she added. &#8220;We are facing yet another chapter in a process of border externalisation that is the obsession of Europe\u2019s right-wing parties. And it is deeply troubling to hear from Commissioner Brunner that the Commission would like to apply a similar system to the management of asylum procedures next year.
