The French National Assembly approved a bill to strengthen the rules of migration, which has already caused indignation among human rights defenders. The bill, known in the country as the "Darmanten Law", complain "the most rewarding in the last 40 years." Defenders of rights have stated that this law "violates human rights" and "significantly impairs living conditions in France for all foreigners."
The new law provides for a number of measures to strengthen the control over the deportation of illegal migrants. Among them are the introduction of deportation from France foreigners who committed crimes and the addition of illegal migrants to the list of wanted to control their actual departure from the country.
The rules of stay on a family visa are increased separately, limiting the number of relatives. Migrants will now be obliged to pass the French language exams for the implementation of the family reunification, and the conditions for receiving state social assistance are becoming more strict, requiring proving the inability to find work.
Particular emphasis is placed on those who have committed a crime against the police who may be deprived of citizenship or residence permit. However, the bill also takes into account the possibility of legalization of stay in the country of illegal migrants who can find a job in a sector where French workers are lacking.
