President promulgates decree on return of foreigners after Constitutional Court decision

TV RECORD EUROPA1 September 2026 at 10:10

The President of the Republic promulgated the Parliament's decree on granting asylum, detention and return of foreigners. The promulgation occurred after the Constitutional Court ruled on the non-unconstitutionality of the legislation in question.

The decree addresses issues related to the status of foreigners, including procedures for granting asylum, detention conditions and rules for the return of persons in an irregular situation.

The Constitutional Court evaluated the legislation and concluded that it does not violate constitutional principles, thus allowing its promulgation and entry into force.

This decision comes in the context of the country's migration policies and discussions on the treatment of foreigners in national territory.
