International talks aimed at reforming the European Court of Human Rights' handling of migration cases will begin on Wednesday, with the UK government advocating for modernization to address illegal migration. Key figures, including Sir Keir Starmer and Danish PM Mette Frederiksen, emphasize the need to reinterpret human rights laws to facilitate border control. Critics argue that the ECHR hinders the removal of illegal migrants, while supporters claim these concerns are overstated. The UK aims for a political declaration by spring to clarify the application of human rights laws in migration, amidst ongoing debates about the convention's relevance.
