Bruselas quiere las huellas digitales de los migrantes, aunque sea por la fuerza.
Un documento interno remitido por la Comisión Europea a los Estados miembros plantea diez medidas para conseguir que se recojan las huellas dactilares de todos los migrantes en situación irregular o solicitantes de asilo interceptados en suelo comunitario cuando se nieguen a colaborar, directrices que incluyen la posibilidad de hacer uso de la fuerza o detener a quien se niegue a proporcionar esta información.

• Statewatch.: European Commission's secret plans to use force in taking finderprints of refugees, asylum seekers and undocumented migrants.  EU: Fingerprinting by force: secret discussions on "systematic identification" of migrants and asylum seekers. The European Commission and Member States are discussing, in secret, a set of "best practices for Member States to follow in order to ensure that their obligations under the Eurodac Regulation are fulfilled". The guidelines ultimately address "fingerprinting [with] the use of a proportionate degree of coercion" including on "vulnerable persons, such as minors or pregnant women". The aim is to "uphold the integrity of the Dublin Regulation" - the legal basis for Europe's asylum system, which many consider to be fundamentally flawed (Press release).
