We kicked off our working visit to the Evros region with pathologist dr Pavlidis. He identifies an increasing number of dead migrants who tried to cross the border to find protection. He keeps the bodies in freeze containers, hoping that family members will learn about their fate

@Frontex De Europese Commissie mag niet langer wegkijken van deze #pushbacks en moet het uitkeren van EU-geld voorwaardelijk maken aan de bescherming van mensen die vluchten voor oorlog en geweld.

In Griekenland ga ik, samen met andere Groene collega’s, onder andere in gesprek met ngo’s, @Frontex en de Griekse minister van Asielzaken. Daarnaast bezoeken we het opvang- en detentiecentrum Fylakio.

Ik ben in de Evros-regio in Griekenland om de mensenrechtenschendingen aan onze Europese buitengrenzen te onderzoeken. Het staat onomstotelijk vast dat vluchtelingen met geweld de EU uit worden geduwd, terwijl ze recht hebben op een asielaanvraag.

This first step to suspend funding to Hungary is important but it needs to encompass much more funding and more clear demands, including anti-corruption and independent judiciary. This moment and opportunity is crucial to rescue the rule of law in the EU. Don’t waste it.

Een inspirerende GL/PvdA avond over duurzame steun aan Oekraïne, die met, voor en door (Oekraïense) samenleving vorm moet krijgen. En laten we ook Oekraïense cultuur koesteren. Waaronder dit prachtige nummer ‘onder de appelboom’.

RT @ChrisMommers: "More than 1,200 people have died in the Mediterranean Sea in 2022, adding to the horrifying tally of almost 25,000 deaths since 2014. While the endless tragedy has many causes, the decision of European governments to prioritize border control over sea rescue is central."

Vandaag nam het Europees Parlement het rapport aan dat laat zien dat de Hongaarse rechtsstaat is afgegleden tot een autocratisch regime. Mijn boodschap aan de Commissie en Raad is dan ook: zet alle mogelijke fondsen stop totdat Orbán de rechtsstaat volledig heeft hersteld.

Next week, I will be in Greece to further assess the pushbacks, rights violations and silencing of critical voices. The LIBE committee also invited the NL and BE to explain their deteriorated reception conditions. All MS must respect the right to asylum and share responsibility.

At the #SOTEU, solidarity with Ukranian refugees was praised, but EC and EUCO stay silent as thousands of refugees are being pushed back. Meanwhile asylum seekers are forced to sleep outside because countries fail to organize themselves. This race to the bottom is unacceptable.
