What the coverage shows

Both outlets lead on the UK threatening to ban Eritreans in connection with a returns or migrant return policy. BBC News keeps the focus on the home secretary’s warning that measures could be imposed on countries “refusing to co-operate,” while The Guardian US adds that the move follows Eritrea withdrawing returns cooperation earlier this year and says Eritreans could be stopped from coming unless the country accepts more rejected asylum seekers and criminals.
