Does Latin America feel entitled to all lands from Pole to Pole? They are whining about France's immigration policy, now?
"EU nations back France's tougher immigration plan
CANNES, France — European Union nations gave their backing Monday to a French-drafted pact calling for tightening immigration and asylum rules across the 27-nation bloc.
Justice and interior ministers from the member nations signed off on an eight-page declaration that would bind their governments to step up negotiations on a common immigration policy _ and complete an effort that has been under way for nearly two decades.
Presented by French Immigration Minister Brice Hortefeux, the plan would commit EU nations to coordinating policies and setting common standards for the treatment of migrants by 2012.
"The pact represents progress," Hortefeux said, adding that it would officially be signed by the bloc's national leaders in October.
The plan sets five goals for attracting highly skilled workers while managing or expelling unwanted, illegal and mostly poor migrants. Some elements, including language integration and a ban on mass amnesties for illegal residents, were watered down after several EU states raised concerns the pact was too heavy handed.
The pact appears to rehash several existing proposals that have been deadlocked for years in the EU, including establishing high-tech border checks and a European corps of border guards to help at weaker frontier points.
Latin American nations have criticized Europe for pursuing policies that they say are unfairly targeting and expelling thousands of migrants who come seeking better economic opportunities.
The human rights group Amnesty International and the U.N. refugee agency told France before the EU meeting that the needs and rights of asylum seekers should be respected.
EU officials and ministers said the get-tough approach should not be seen as a crackdown.
"This does not transform Europe into a fortress," German Interior Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said. "But we have to create conditions that allow us to integrate those here for a long period."
About 220,000 people applied for asylum in the EU last year _ a 12 percent increase from 2006, officials say. The vast majority of applicants came from Africa, former Soviet countries and the Balkans. Tens of thousands more try each year to sneak into the bloc as economic migrants.
Highlighting the problem, Spanish rescue teams searched Monday for 14 Africans missing after a boat carrying migrants capsized in rough seas off Spain's coast. Hundreds die every year in dangerous sea voyages to Spain and other southern EU states, while many more are caught and sent back.
France's initial proposal was revised after Spain opposed both a ban on large-scale amnesties for illegal immigrants and plans to force migrants to learn their host countries' languages.

I want to know where the worldwide outrage at the very mention of immigration enforcement against the poor was when this article made the news. If the U.S. were to specifically indicate that our intention was to expel "unwanted, illegal and mostly poor migrants." There would be no end to the fury. Oh, how the prejudiced cry prejudice and the racists cry racism.

I guess Mexico has illegals, from the usa. They can't live in the usa. social security money doesn't pay to live in the usa. Thats why they are moving to Mexico for cheap living. Mexico needs to deported them as well.
