many assume they will be
allowed to stay in Europe
indefinitely.
Demetrios Papademet-
riou, president emeritus
of the Washington-based
Migration Policy Institute,
said this approach by
the EU is workable and
humane when the influx
of migrants is modest,
but may soon become
unfeasible.
“Are we seeing the van-
ishingof theMediterranean
borders of the EU or not?
In the next six months
we’ll find the answer,” he
said. “Europe has its back
against the wall. It can’t say,
‘We’ll take in all of you and
treat you well.’”
In Germany, which is
accepting more migrants
than any European nation,
Chancellor Angela Merkel
has argued that theEUrisks
betraying its core commit-
ment to human rights.
“If Europe fails on the
question of refugees, this
close connection with uni-
versal civil rights will be
destroyed and it won’t be
the Europe we want,” she
said.
In many EU countries,
the debate has grown
nastier due to the rise of
nationalist and right-wing
anti-immigration political
movements. Such parties
have won double-digit sup-
port in recent elections in
Sweden, Austria, Denmark,
Hungary, France, Britain
and the Netherlands.
In Germany, by contrast,
the major parties have
taken a unified stance in
support of welcoming ref-
ugees, and the far-right
National Democratic Party
won only 1.5 percent of the
vote in the latest parlia-
mentary elections.
“It’s a very sensitive issue,
and here in Germany we’re
trying not to politicize it,”
said Astrid Ziebarth, a
Berlin-based migration
specialist with the German
Marshall Fund. “There
have been different opin-
ions and stances, but a
general agreement that we
can manage the refugee
situation.”
However, she said even
Germany — while expect-
ed to accommodate most
asylum-seekers from war-
torn countries — is likely
to rebuff many of the “eco-
nomic” migrants arriv-
ing from non-EU Balkan
countries such as Albania
and Kosovo
Just as the migrant cri-
sis has created rifts among
EU nations, immigration
has sharply divided juris-
dictions in the U.S. There
are now about 11.3 million
immigrants living in the
country illegally, accord-
ing to the Pew Research
Center, down from a peak
of 12.2 million in 2007.
Scores of cities have
adopted “sanctuary” poli-
cies that offer some sort of
protection to immigrants
who lack legal status. In
some states, they can get
driver’s licenses.
In contrast, Arizona,
Alabama and a few other
states enacted laws in
2010 and 2011 empower-
ing local police officers to
question people’s immi-
gration status and demand
that they show documen-
tation. Federal authori-
ties and immigrant-rights
groups took court action
that blocked many of the
provisions, but the dis-
putes highlighted the deep
divisions over immigration
enforcement.
The Republican Party
itself is divided. While
Trump leads the polls as
he advocates mass depor-
tation, one of his main
rivals, former Florida Gov.
Jeb Bush, supports chang-
es that would provide a
rigorous pathway to legal
status for immigrants in
the U.S. illegally. Many
Democrats,
including
presidential front-runner
Hillary Rodham Clinton,
go even further by advo-
cating a pathway to full
citizenship.
Overall, there have been
far more deportations
under Obama than under
his Republican predeces-
sor, George W. Bush, with
an increased emphasis in
recent years on deport-
ing people with criminal
records and those who’ve
just crossed the border.
According to federal figures,
there were 368,644 depor-
tations in the 2013 fiscal
year and 315,943 in 2014.
During those years,
tens of thousands of fam-
ilies and unaccompanied
minors from Honduras,
Guatemala
and
El
Salvador surged across the
U.S.-Mexico border.
Authorities sought to
place most of the unac-
companied children with
relatives in the U.S., but
many of the families were
detained. The detentions
and deportations have
angered immigrant-rights
advocates,
who
say
many of those Central
Americans were fleeing
rampant violence and met
the standards for obtain-
ing asylum.
“These are incredibly
traumatized women and
kids who do not belong
in detention,” said Karen
Lucas, associate director of
advocacy for the American
Immigration
Lawyers
Association. “The interna-
tional community is watch-
ingus, andwewill be judged
as to howwe respond.”
In recent years, the
U.S. has accepted roughly
55,000 to 70,000 refugees
annually from scores of
countries. But it has been
criticized for accepting
only a small number of the
4 million Syrians who have
fled their war-torn home-
land — fewer than 1,500
thus far, according to
the International Rescue
Committee.
“As the German govern-
ment calmly says that it
expects 800,000 refugees
and asylum seekers in
2015, it is vital for the U.S.
to step up its response,”
said the IRC’s president,
David Miliband.
Dan Stein, president
of the Federation for
American Immigration
Reform, which advocates
for tighter immigration
controls, says both the EU
and the United States face
crucial choices.
“We can go down the
road of accommodation
and anarchy, or the path
of law and the notion that
sovereignty involves main-
taining borders,” he said.
Stein contends that
Obama — by easing U.S.
deportation policy — has
sent an unwise message of
welcome to other would-
be migrants.
“You can see into our
future by looking at
Europe today,” Stein said.
“The Obama administra-
tion is setting the stage for
a sustained, uncontrolled
influx from all over the
world.”
Karen Tumlin, legal
director of the National
Immigration Law Center,
hopes the U.S. draws a
different message from
the EU’s crisis and heeds
Merkel’s advice to honor
long-standing values.
“It’s not like she’s say-
ing it’s going to be easy,”
Tumlin said. “She’s saying
we have to have certain
principles.”
MIGRANTS:
Debate becomes nastier in many EU countries

Immigrants from El Salvador and Guatemala
who entered the U.S. illegally board a bus July 7
after they were released from a family detention
center in San Antonio. Women and children are
being released from immigrant detention centers
faster on bond, with many mothers assigned
ankle-monitoring bracelets in lieu of paying.
