According to the Telegraph, the German ministry wants to stop migrants ever reaching Europe's Mediterranean coast by picking them up at sea and returning them to Africa.
A ministry spokeswoman was quoted saying:
' The elimination of the prospect of reaching the European coast could convince migrants to avoid embarking on the life-threatening and costly journey and costly journey in the first place'.
The ministry's proposal calls for migrants picked up in the Mediterranean to be sent to Tunisia, Egypt or other north African states to apply for asylum from there.
