Rejecting demands from some humanitarian groups, Gerard Collomb said he feared that a help center would lure migrants back to the port city. Thousands of migrants were forced out of a makeshift camp in Calais in October.

Collomb said he will present a new asylum plan within two weeks to President Emmanuel Macron, as requested.

“We have to take into account what failed in the past …,” he said. “To have great humanity, you must all have great firmness.”

The minister’s visit came days after the death of a Polish truck driver whose small vehicle crashed into one of three big-rig trucks stopped by a blockade of tree trunks and branches. Over time, dozens of migrants have been killed, some by vehicles, but this was the first death of a truck driver.
