Both analysts agree on MINT; EU's enforcement-heavy return strategy violates rights and fails. | While Europe's financial and control-based return strategy for migrants is an attempt to manage migration (SDG 10, 16), it is failing and likely violating fundamental rights (UDHR 14, 2; CRC 22). The negative impact outweighs the limited positive intent.
