As for EU countries, why would they bother trying to stop those who are just "passing through".? If they smash the smugglers, the migrants are stuck in their Country  |
Not factually correct - the smugglers take the vast majority to the EU countries, so it will also benefit them…

With 229 695 first-time asylum applicants registered in 2024, Germany continued to be the EU country with the highest number of applicants, accounting for a quarter of all first-time applicants in the EU (25.2%). Spain came second (164 010, 18.0%), followed by Italy (151 120, 16.6%), France (130 860, 14.3%), and Greece (69 000, 7.6%).
These 5 EU countries together accounted for 82% of all first-time asylum applicants in the EU last year.

For comparison, there 108,000 applications for asylum in the U.K. in 2024.
From the link above

In 2024, there were around 16 asylum applications for every 10,000 people living in the UK. Across the EU27 there were 22 asylum applications for every 10,000 people.
The UK was therefore below the average among EU countries for asylum applications per head of population, ranking 14th among EU27 countries plus the UK on this measure.
