EU suggests 'Return Hubs' to deport more people whose asylum requests were denied.

The European Union wants to send more people who don't have permission to stay back to their home countries. They want to create special places called 'return hubs' where these people can be kept before they are sent back.

Right now, only 20% of people who are told to leave actually leave the EU. The EU wants to change the rules to make it easier for countries to send people back.

The EU wants to work with other countries to create these 'return hubs'. These hubs might be in Europe or in other parts of the world.

The EU also wants to make the rules stricter for people who don't leave when they are told. They might have to stay in special centers for longer if they are considered a danger.

Some people are worried that these new rules will make it harder for people to ask for asylum in the EU. They also worry that more people will be kept in detention centers while they wait to be sent back home.
