Is the far-right shaping the EU’s migration policy?

It’s an issue that has divided Europe for years – illegal migration.

Almost two million people have risked their lives crossing the Mediterranean Sea since 2014.

This movement towards Europe continues to take a devastating toll on human life. Thousands die during their desperate journeys.

So, what’s the fallout from the continuing rifts within the EU over migration?
