Sorry Australia set the precedent. We’ve been towing boats back for 20 years
So asylum seekers went through Russia to reach Finland, but now Finland is wrong for not accepting them, even though they had asylum inside Russia?
It’s the same situation in the US, with Central American migrants going through Mexico to reach the US, and not being happy with Mexican asylum. Asylum gets thrown around too much and should be better codified before countries are being passed over at the migrant’s discretion.
