Europe’s migration policy is again under debate. GLO Fellow Victoria Vernon (State University of New York Empire State College) was interviewed in the news show ‘Brussels, my love?’ on Brussels, my love? The EU’s migration muddle and tanks for Ukraine (updated: 04/02/2023). She outlined the benefits of immigration and argued against new borders and fences on the background of her research with GLO President Klaus F. Zimmermann.
