1/10 What will the long-awaited EU #MigrationPact presented today (audiovisual.ec.europa.eu/en/ebs/1/20200…) mean for EU external #migration governance and the #EU’s partnership with African countries? Here are some of my takeaways....

2/10 First, no surprises. The pact outlines mostly a continuation of existing approaches concerning partner countries.
Yet, with
2. A stronger focus on migration diplomacy to increase returns (and making use of enriched tools: finances, visa policy, a new EU coordinator)

3/10 Elements of the ‘external dimension’ of the pact were already agreed early on as they are far less controversial among EU member states, However, the pact links return to internal solidarity putting pressure on EU member states to convince partner countries to cooperate.

The Greek government wants to replace refugee camps with detention centers. This is unacceptable. People who have fled war & persecution and are seeking international protection should NOT be put behind bars. 1/4

A few years ago, detaining people who have suffered under war and persecution was unthinkable in Europe – now, it has become reality.
The Greek government’s decision to lock up people seeking asylum is simply unacceptable. 2/4

@OxfamEU People seeking asylum in #Greece have fled war, persecution + suffered under horrific conditions in refugee camps on the Greek islands. The majority of them are children. They came to Europe for protection – now the Greek government want to put them behind bars. 3/4 #MigrationEU
“We cannot continue to squabble to find ad-hoc solutions each time a new ship arrives.”
During #SOTEU, President @JunckerEU proposed:
• A reinforced European Union Agency for Asylum
• A fully equipped #EUBorderGuard
• Stronger EU rules on return
• Legal migration

We are proposing to equip the #EUBorderGuard with the operational capacity and powers needed to effectively support Member States on the ground.
The new standing corps of 10,000 operational staff will ensure that the EU has the necessary capabilities in place.

Sea arrivals in #Spain are increasing.
But the closure of a #migration route doesn't mean that automatically migrants just move to a different one. There is little evidence of a 'route replacement' trend.

This is an important reminder that 'immigration policies' can affect migration flows but are hardly the only factor at play. The drivers of #migration are multiple and can't be reduce to the political will 'at destination'.
There is an overall and significant decrease in sea arrivals, which should be a warning for everyone still using the word 'migration crisis', but this is not the case, see newint.org/features/web-e… #Salvini #Italy
Salvini without jacket at press conference after this morning’s trip to Libya. In full confident mode on #Migration
I asked him about his message to EU leaders at their summit this week: he said Italy had been left alone for years with #Migration crisis and that now Merkel and Macron had to be ‘consequent’

So. The #Lifeline case has descended into another Aquarius case. Meanwhile, 16 leaders of EU Member States meet for an #EUCO informal meeting on #migrationEU.
Time for a brief recap of the role of #NGO-s doing #SAR operations in the Central Mediterranean? 👇

First: PERCEPTIONS MATTER. 📺🤔
Irregular sea arrivals to Italy are WAY down, and continue to be (-78% y-o-y), even as NGOs carried out over 40% of SAR operations in 2017 and 2018.
Still, 51% of Italians believe flows are as high or higher than last year's.👇

1) #NicolasSarkozy was #France’s president 2007-2012, was arrested & is being questioned about his illegally financed campaign by #Gaddafi in #Libya, some backstory.
How did Sarkozy go from accepting #illegal cash to advocating overthrow?

2) A total of $50m was funneled. And it wasn't done via wire transfer. Franco-Lebanese businessman Ziad Takkiedine claims he carried suitcases full of cash in 2006 and 2007.
$50m is double the legal campaign limit in France.

#Sarkozy is a corrupt #swamp rat. He's been dogged by corruption claims forever. A simple search will show a laundry list.
