The future of Afghanistan is becoming more uncertain with the withdrawal of Nato troops. The US Army and the Bundeswehr will soon withdraw from Afghanistan, and if a civil war breaks out, this would lead to a migration movement towards Europe. Calls for a complete ban on deportations are being heard in the Bundestag. In connection with the dispute over EU sanctions, Iran recently made it clear that it would no longer block the way to Turkey for Afghans. This could lead to a new refugee crisis in the Mediterranean region as early as this summer. read more

In the summer of 2020, Denmark made a decision with which the country remains alone in Europe to this day: The authorities declared parts of Syria a safe country of return and began revoking the temporary residence permits of Syrian refugees in Denmark. The move was criticised by representatives of the United Nations and refugee organisations, but initially attracted little attention in Denmark or the rest of Europe. Now, at the beginning of April, a refugee student appeared on television. A heated debate was sparked. read more

As a domestic policy consequence of the Afghanistan withdrawal by the USA and allies, PRO ASYL demands an immediate halt to deportations and a reassessment of the persecution situation by the Foreign Office and the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF). "Afghanistan is now becoming even more of a Taliban country, the federal and state interior ministries must stop the monthly deportations. We call on each federal state to decree on its own responsibility the legally permissible 3-month ban on deportations and to bring about a nationwide regulation at the conference of federal and state interior ministers in June," said Günter Burkhardt, executive director of PRO ASYL. read more

In numerose città d’Italia si sono tenute ieri le proteste organizzate dal “Coordinamento documenti per tutti e tutte,” che ha riunito diverse realtà dell’attivismo e del sindacalismo di base a sostegno dei diritti delle persone straniere in Italia. read more
