France does not automatically recognize the right of asylum (Gazeta Express)

The recent information, that France, allegedly, automatically recognizes the right of asylum for citizens of Kosovo is not correct, Gazeta Ekspress reports. Kosovo Minister of Internal Affairs, Bajram Rexhepi, met French Ambassador to Kosovo, Maryse Daviet to discuss illegal migration of Kosovo citizens to European countries.

According to Gazeta Express, Daviet told Rexhepi that the French government is in the process of changing the legislation that deals with asylum, which favors especially expedited procedures to review the applications, in particular unfounded applications (which is the case with most asylum applications from Kosovo citizens).
