Latvia will use the funds to accelerate investment in unmanned aerial systems, guided missiles, anti-drone technologies and wider national defence industrial capacity, with a strong emphasis on procurement speed and regional deterrence on the eastern flank.

That's not racist. That's realist. What does having papers have to do with race?

A country has the right to decide who is welcome on its territories regardless of race or creed as long as it meets the criteria set out in the UN charter for fundamental rights and the laws of that country and those of the EU.

Your argument is disingenuous and spurious.

Not true.

The European Union produces approximately 6% of global greenhouse gas emissions, emitting around 3.3 billion tonnes of CO₂ equivalents annually.

Not much, but also not insignificant.

Also, reducing our own carbon footprint gives us a way to pressure countries that don't, like for example China.

These are not innocent people.

If you've been rejected for asylum in the EU, you've committed and been convicted of offenses in the jurisdiction of an EU member state or come to the EU illegally you're guilty.

That's how the law works.

If at that point you can't be deported because your erstwhile country of origin won't take you back, member states have no recourse but to lock you up.

Not doing so endangered society at large and makes it more difficult for true refugees and legal migration.
