European Asylum System

The European Asylum System is a framework that manages how EU countries handle asylum requests from people fleeing danger or persecution. It aims to ensure fair, consistent treatment across member states by coordinating procedures, sharing responsibility for asylum seekers, and respecting human rights. The system includes policies on processing applications, providing protection, and integrating refugees into society. It seeks to prevent "asylum shopping" (seeking asylum in multiple countries) and promote solidarity among nations. Overall, it balances the need to protect vulnerable individuals with maintaining security and order within the European Union.
