EU Leaders Urge New Human Rights View on Migration.

Some EU leaders want to change human rights rules. They want to manage migration and deport people better. These leaders think current rules are too strict for them.

The leaders wrote a public letter in Rome this week. They said the court limits what countries can do. They think it stops them from deporting some migrants with problems.

Leaders from nine countries signed the letter together. These countries include Italy and Poland, for example. They all want to change how the court sees human rights.

The leaders feel the court protects the 'wrong people'. They think it is hard to expel bad people. The court makes decisions about human rights in many countries.

Illegal border crossings into the EU are less now than before. The numbers have gone down by 27 percent this year. The number of migrants is not as high as in 2015, though.
