A new wall spanning almost half the length of the Belarusian border is being built and volunteers on the ground, many of whom have also been helping at the Ukrainian border, say their work is becoming increasingly criminalised at the Belarusian frontier. Volunteers say the authorities are taking a harsher line and people who previously may have received a small fine for helping refugees are now facing criminal charges. Why are volunteers on the Ukrainian border treated as heroes while those helping families cross from Belarus face criminal charges? read more

Le porte del Regno Unito si aprono finalmente, dopo le lentezze delle prime settimane, al rilascio dei visti riservati agli sfollati in fuga dalla guerra scatenata dall'invasione russa dell'Ucraina. Anche se - per paradosso - i dati chiamati a certificare l'accelerazione dell'iter privilegiato garantito a suo tempo arrivano in contemporanea con il proclama di un ferreo giro di vite da parte del governo Tory di Boris Johnson contro l'immigrazione ordinaria: con tanto di dispiegamento di unità militari della Royal Navy a dare la caccia ai "migranti illegali" e agli scafisti lungo le rotte della Manica e di piani per la deportazione di fatto in Africa, con biglietti "one way" verso il lontano Ruanda, dei "clandestini" aggrappati in futuro alla speranza d'una domanda di asilo. read more

Refugees in Libya are trapped in a cycle of violence and lack of prospects. In October 2021, thousands demanded their rights in front of the office of the UN Refugee Agency in Tripoli. The self-organised protest was brutally suppressed by the Libyan authorities - and was barely a marginal note in Europe. And today? read more

Netherlands: in the case of Dublin returns of asylum seekers from Egypt and Algeria, the Administrative Jurisdiction Division of the Council of State decided that Dutch State Secretary Eric van der Burg cannot simply assume that Croatia would comply with the European Convention on Human Rights and thus may not send the two asylum seekers back to Croatia without an investigation. Although EU member states may assume that all member states comply with human rights, there can sometimes be grounds for further investigation. The Council of State ruled that, in this case, Van der Burg should have investigated “current facts and circumstances.” The State Secretary must examine whether the asylum seekers from Egypt and Algeria will be able to go through the asylum procedure upon returning to Croatia. Given that pushbacks at Croatia’s external border have been taking place “on a large scale and over a long period of time,” as stated by the State Council, such treatment is becoming possible towards persons being readmitted by Croatia from other member states as well. read more

The French Presidency of the Council is seeking EU-wide comparisons of every DNA profile held by police forces against all those held by other national police forces, as well as EU policing agency Europol, as part of plans to upgrade the ‘Prüm’ network of police databases. It also hopes to automate the police exchange of facial images by eliminating requirements for human review. read more

EU programmes such as the Emergency Fund for Africa place migration control above development aid, critics say. Historical inequalities mean that African countries are often at a disadvantage in negotiations. The EU exploits this by using the granting of development funds as leverage to push through its political agenda. In recent years, this has mostly been about migration. How does this fit in with the European Union's development aid goals? read more

Gli effetti socio-economici della pandemia acuiscono le vulnerabilità dei rifugiati, aumentano fragilità e marginalità sociale. Il sistema d'accoglienza a più di due anni dal superamento dei decreti sicurezza non riesce ad uscire dalla logica dell'emergenza, mentre nel 2021 gli sbarchi sono raddoppiati rispetto all'anno precedente. read more

After years of halting decisions (since December 2019), the German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) has announced that regular asylum procedures will be carried out for asylum seekers who have already been recognised as refugees in Greece. Since last year, German jurisprudence has largely agreed that people should not be sent back to misery in Greece. The problem: the authorities do not feel bound by the asylum decision from Greece. read more

These days, Europe is showing impressively that it is capable of coping with large refugee movements. In many cases, refugees from Ukraine are accommodated privately for the first few days, receive a status immediately after registration, and are allowed to move and work freely. The question arises: Why not always like this? read more

Con il decreto legge della Protezione civile del 12 aprile 2020 venivano istituite le navi quarantena, mezzi controversi strettamente legati alla durata dell’emergenza sanitaria, sui quali i profughi avrebbero dovuto espletare i 14 giorni di isolamento fiduciario. Nonostante l’emergenza sanitaria da Covid-19 sia terminata il 31 marzo e non esistano atti normativi che ne proroghino i termini, alcuni di questi mezzi non risultano ancora dismessi, nonostante non vi siano leggi né decreti che ne giustifichino l’esistenza. read more

Der Europarat hat eine bedeutende Zunahme der widerrechtlichen Zurückweisungen von Asylsuchenden in europäischen Ländern angeprangert.

È invalso ritenere che, a paragone del diritto pieno di chi scappa dalla guerra, chi invece scappa dalla fame vanti un diritto dimidiato all’accoglienza. Ma a parte il fatto che molto spesso la fame da cui si scappa è generata proprio da una guerra, resta da capire in base a quale criterio il cosiddetto “migrante economico” (formula buona per un consulente in cerca di emolumento migliore) sia tanto più facilmente destinatario delle politiche dei porti chiusi. read more
