The proposal for Instrumentalisation Regulation has been blocked in the Council. In the Parliament, we will first assess the impact of the proposal on fundamental rights, before we even negotiate. Hopefully these exceptions to core asylum rules will not become legislation.

RT @AmnestyIran: .@amnesty is horrified at today’s execution of protester Mohsen Shekari by Iranian authorities less than 3 weeks after sentencing him in a grossly unfair sham trial. His execution exposes the inhumanity of Iran's so-called justice system as dozens of others face the same fate.

@Frontex EU taxpayer money is being used to carry out these illegal pushbacks. This is a clear violation of EU funding rules. The EU Commission needs to explain how this could happen and must exercise proper scrutiny over its 100s of millions of border and migration management funding.

This brutality is carried out in plain sight of @Frontex officers. Clearly, the agency still fails to uphold its fundamental rights duties, thereby becoming complicit. Frontex MUST take human rights as seriously as border control. If they can't, they're obliged to withdraw.

Human beings in cages, degraded and denied asylum.
This violates everything the EU stands for. Such dark sites exist because the Commission and member states don't shed light on them. Protecting rights at EU borders is a collective responsibility. Now, it's our collective shame.

Mensen op de vlucht worden in Bulgarije in kooien gestopt en in Kroatië urenlang opgesloten in politiebusjes.

Dit gebeurt met medeweten van EU-grensagentschap Frontex en met gebruik van EU-geld.

De EU Commissie moet opheldering geven over deze bizarre praktijken en ingrijpen.

RT @groenlinks: Nieuw bewijs van @LHreports toont aan dat grenswachten gewelddadige pushbacks uitvoeren aan EU’s buitengrenzen. Door rechtse retoriek staat de solidariteit van vluchtelingen ernstig onder druk met (dodelijke) slachtoffers tot gevolg.

By continuing to tolerate Orban’s blackmail, this is a problem EU member states themselves created. Now is the time to change strategy and find ways to move on with the vetoed dossiers without Hungary. And to safeguard key EU interests, including Ukraine and the rule of law. 2/2
