Yesterday's trilogues on the EU Asylum Pact haven't led to an agreement yet. Many contentious issues remain open, incl.:
- Screening within the territory & scope of the fundamental rights monitoring mechanism
- Modalities of mandatory border procedures & safe country concepts

Tomorrow is an important day for the EU Asylum Pact with negotiations on the remaining Regulations: Screening, Eurodac, APR, AMMR & Crisis.
The pressure to reach an agreement is immense. But we cannot succumb to a deal that fails to provide a fair, effective & humane system. 🧵

R to @Tineke_Strik: The Pact was presented with the promise of solidarity, no more pushbacks & no more Morias.

What is on the table now fails to deliver.

We're heading towards a system of mass-scale detention and destitution at the borders, hollowed-out procedures & legalized rights violations. 2/

R to @Tineke_Strik: We desperately need an asylum system rooted in genuine solidarity, with strict compliance and enforcement of the common standards. Anything less will not resolve but rather exacerbate the disorder and cruelty we see today.

For 6 months already,
https://nitter.cz/OliverVarhelyi
refuses to answer our Written Question.
The crux is simple: Can the Commission entirely exclude EU funding contributing to human rights violations in Libya?
It’s pretty telling that he remains silent despite 5 official reminders.

While Commission and Parliament aim to strengthen the legal position of longterm residents in the EU, Council only wants to lower the standards. Ignoring that improving rights also means improving integration. Steve Peers analysed the Council position.

Yesterday, we presented the study “Beyond Borders, Beyond Boundaries” that

and I commissioned on the human rights impact of EU border management funding in Libya and Tunisia. 🧵

R to @Tineke_Strik: The study finds that the EU has funded Tunisian and Libyan authorities over the last years, both of whom are systematically involved in severe human rights violations, such as shooting at boats, pushbacks, imprisonment and extortion. 2/

R to @Tineke_Strik: A strong correlation has been found between EU migration funding and systemic human rights violations committed, concluding these funds evidently contradict EU and international law. 3/

R to @Tineke_Strik: Main recommendations:
- Impact assessments before the funding and suspension in case of violations
- More transparency about the funding and its implementation
- More democratic control and involvement of civil society. 4/
