Spajic: Montenegro Will Not Take Part in UK’s Asylum Seeker Relocation Program to the Balkans


24. Mar 2025. 00:41

The Prime Minister of Montenegro, Milojko Spajic, stated today that the country will not be participating in the initiative that could see asylum seekers rejected in Great Britain sent to the Balkans.

“Montenegro is not part of this initiative, but we are open to the possibility of participation from other countries in the region,” Spajić expressed on social media platform X.

Reports from British media indicate that the government is considering a plan to send rejected asylum seekers from the UK to resolve the increasing number of migrants making perilous crossings of the English Channel in small boats.

The organization Migration Watch UK noted that as of yesterday, over 5,200 migrants had entered Britain via small boats in the year 2025.

According to proposals put forth by the British government, as reported by the Independent, “return centers” located abroad would be designated for accommodating those whose asylum applications have been denied.

This initiative marks a significant shift from the previous Conservative policy regarding Rwanda, which mandated that individuals arriving by small boats would be sent to that African nation, regardless of their asylum eligibility in the UK.

The Times, which was the first to report on the consideration of this plan by government ministers, mentioned that potential destinations could include Albania, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and North Macedonia.

Additionally, the Times, citing sources within the British government, suggested that London is allegedly planning to receive payments for each individual migrant.
