.@DIEZEIT ran an article last week based on internal documents from the German Foreign Ministry showing that not just Germany but 13 EU states complained about the sidelining of the European Council & human rights issues in the EU-#Tunisia MoU and may consider legal steps.

How can the EU still stay silent on Saied’s ruthless treatment of migrants, thrown into the sea or deported to the desert, both ending up in death? How can it still claim that the EU-Tunisia deal complies with human rights? Time for a Court case, and decisive action by Parliament

The JHA Council failed to agree on the Crisis Regulation. Negotiations continue after summer. Any new text should:
- respect asylum standards and fundamental rights,
- not allow for derogations in case of ‘instrumentalisation’,
- ensure effective solidarity among EU states.

On the @GreensEfa initiative, the EP urges, with this letter, a complete breakdown of the funding for the EU-Tunisian migration deal.
We urgently need full clarification on how this deal respects human rights, especially given the ongoing violations by the Tunisian police. https://t.co/lYc7838Dp4

In our meeting with UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk, we discussed the UN conclusion that EU’s funding of Libyan Coastguard contributes to crimes against humanity against refugees and migrants. Human rights violations can never be accepted as collateral damage. https://t.co/8BghvvghTq

This investigation once again confirms our deeply flawed external migration policy.
The EU is cooperating with criminal actors which are causing many deaths in de Mediterranean, such as #Pylos.
@vonderleyen urgently needs to suspend funding to all Libyan border entities.

Dodik keeps pushing the boundaries of the Rule of Law in Bosnia.
How many signals does the international community need before it wakes up?
I expect the @OHR_BiH to act and annul the law.
The EU needs to join UK/US sanctions now, in order to halt these dangerous developments.

Another baffling response from the Commission:

✅ The CJEU confirmed this
❌ No infringement action

As Dodik takes another step to secession, stability and peace are again under pressure in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The only language Dodik understands are sanctions. The EU and international community need to act and protect the Bosnian state now. https://t.co/rnlOeqDXCd
