It is about 16 men from Bangladesh and Egypt who were picked up in the Mediterranean on their way to Europe.
They arrived Wednesday morning in the Scottish port city of Shengjin after a 36-hour journey by naval vessel.
The defense camp was established as a result of an agreement between Albania and Italy. This is the first time that asylum seekers will be taken from an EU country to a country outside the Union to spend their waiting period there.
It is said that the Albanian government has received several inquiries about making similar agreements with other EU countries. But the Prime Minister of Albania, Edi Rama, has clarified that all other countries have been rejected, and that the agreement only applies to Italy.

The proposal for an updated return directive replaces an earlier proposal from 2018 that landed in the EU Parliament.
The letter from von der Leyen is in response to requests from several EU countries for a tougher asylum and migration policy.
In the letter, it is also opened to look with new eyes if it is possible to establish asylum centers outside the borders of the EU.
In 2018, the Commission decided that these institutions would not be compatible with EU law.

In a new study conducted by Norstat for The daily newspapera representative selection of people was asked to what extent they agree or disagree that Norway should fund and open a Norwegian asylum reception center in other countries/in Africa.
Of those questioned, the majority of FRP voters (26 percent) “strongly agreed” that this is a good idea. Furthermore, 22 percent of FRP members agreed somewhat.
– Directly sending asylum seekers to a third country is irresponsible and can lead to serious human rights violations. This is not something that Norway should contribute, says KrF deputy chairman, Dag Inge Ulstein, to NTB.
