Privatized Pushbacks: How the EU and Libya Use Merchant Ships to Block Migrant Boats

Persoonlijk vind ik het goed dat smokkelaars worden tegengehouden. Grof geld verdienen aan mensen laten verdrinken. De site waar dit artikel van komt denkt precies het tegenovergestelde. Ik ben een voorstander van alle kanten lezen.   Reporting by Patrick Kingsley, New York Times: “[O]ne day a few months ago the Libyan Coast Guard ordered [a German merchant ship] to divert course, rescue 68 migrants in distress in the Mediterranean and return them to Libya, which is embroiled in civil war. The request, which the [merchant ship] was required to honor, was at least the third time that day, Jan. 11, that the Libyans had called on a merchant ship to assist migrants. The Libyans could easily have alerted a nearby rescue ship run by a Spanish charity. The reason they did not goes to the core of how the European authorities have found a new way to thwart desperate African migrants trying to reach their shores from across the Mediterranean. And some maritime lawyers think the...

Libiƫ en asiel: New Libya Country Guidance

De Brits Pakistaanse advocaat Asad Ali Khan behandelt op zijn weblog de zaak  ZMM (Article 15(c)) Libya CG [2017] UKUT 263 (IAC) (28 June 2017) Het gaat hier om de vraag of de situatie in LibiĆ« dusdanig onveilig is dat er geen bescherming kan worden geboden aan de eigen onderdanen en er sprake is van een situatie zoals bedoeld in artikel 15(c) van de Kwalificatierichtlijn. De Britse rechter gaat in op allerlei bronnenmateriaal. Ik begreep vorige week van een gerenomeerde Nederlandse advocate dat Libische zaken erg moeilijk zijn omdat Nederland de situatie veilig genoeg vindt.

The migrant slave trade is booming in Libya. Why is the world ignoring it?

I’ve seen the dangerous route to Europe through Libya, with thousands of people at the mercy of cruelty for profit. But our leaders prefer to keep them there ‘We have a heightened responsibility towards Libya because of the role Britain played in bringing down the Gaddafi dictatorship.’ Photograph: Dave Williams/Sound Ltd It’s a mass grave that we don’t need the United Nations to verify. Every day an average of 14 migrants, the vast majority from countries in sub-Saharan Africa, die crossing the Mediterranean. Many more see their European dream turn into a nightmare long before they’re corralled on to flimsy rubber dinghies on Libya’s beaches. They’re the victims of a silent massacre in the Sahara desert – a journey more deadly than the crossing from the coast, according to the International Organisation for Migration Come the spring, thousands of migrants and refugees fleeing poverty and violence will die in Libya, but I doubt you’ll hear much about...

Refugees who fled fighting in Libya to Tunisia's Choucha refugee camp are in the process of being resettled. © www.marcsilver.net  Mawaheb Elnour was studying medicine when her family had to flee the conflict in Libya. This is her story of losing a home, finding a home, and everything that happened in between I was living in Tripoli with my parents, two brothers and sister and had just finished my second year studying medicine when the conflict started in Libya. Our neighbourhood was constantly under NATO air strikes. Fire was coming down on us every day from the sky. Everyone on the streets was carrying weapons and bullets were flying. When you live like that, you try to act cool. But we were scared. My parents were terrified. Years ago they fled to Libya from Darfur – now they were in danger again. One day, the air strikes were so intense that all the windows and doors at home were blown open. We arrived to Choucha refugee camp in Tunisia in May 2011...
