On March 7, 2025, the government coalition announced its intention to introduce a bill tightening migration measures at the national level, as stated by Prime Minister Fiala. However, instead of following the standard legislative process, the bill is set to be submitted as a mere parliamentary initiative by government MPs, aiming for fast-track approval in the first reading.

This approach is problematic and lacks transparency, indicating a politically motivated move rather than a constructive and responsible response to migration. It suggests that the government is using migration as a campaign tool rather than engaging in a serious legislative debate.

Three years ago today, the EU activated the Temporary Protection Directive (TPD), providing a safe pathway to protection for millions of people fleeing the war in Ukraine.
