	Red Cross letter to the EU and Member States on the revised Directive laying down minimum standards for the reception of asylum seekers In this letter the Red Cross EU Office expresses its concern that detention of migrants and asylum seekers in Europe is increasingly becoming the rule, instead of an exceptional measure.We thus urge EU decision makers and Member States to ensure that any national frameworks for asylum reception limit detention possibilities, in order to truly make this a measure of last resort.
