Looks like this story I did earlier this week with @martaforesti has touched a nerve. euobserver.com/eu-and-the-wor… . The UK 'earned' £44m in fees for rejected visas, the EU over £100m, most of it from the world's poorest countries.
euobserver.com EU cashes in on €130m in rejected visa applications EU governments rake in €130m per year in rejected visa application fees, dubbed as 'reverse remittances' by critics, according to new analysis shared with EUobserver. The staggering costs of visa inequality🚨
In 2023 rejected EU visas cost the world’s poorest €100M +, 💰 flowing from poor to rich countries, like a 'reverse remittance'.
Yet we never hear about this🤨
