Ecuador’s President Rafael Correa announced radical plans to support asylum-seekers and stateless people.

Ecuador’s socialist government is proposing a new law to make all migrants legal in the country.

“The right to migrate is guaranteed in the rules. No human being will be considered illegal,” said President Rafael Correa during his weekly address.

The new legislation will cover all areas of migration, as well as visas, passports, and identity documents for foreigners.
