Ever since the Macron government said it would prioritize sending migrants to rural areas, a number of towns have struggled against the construction of migrant centers and planned relocations. Now, a new reception center for asylum seekers is planned to be built in the small French town of Beyssenac, which will house 40 migrants where an old inn had operated.
Local opposition to the asylum center, which was permitted by the prefects of the county of Corrèze, is now growing, according to French newspaper France Bleu.
The Vitalis association bought the inn and will be responsible for managing the reception center. There are already 310 migrants staying in the county of Corrèze, but the new reception center will raise that number to 350.
