L'eventuale sbarco delle personse abordo #LadySham potrebbe finire con la loro detenzione nel centro Karareem, vicino a Misurata. L'ho visitato a luglio, e ho sentito racconti di violenza dai detenuti, compresi una donna incinta hrw.org/it/news/2019/0…
Kemi, una ragazza nigeriana incinta di sette mesi, mi ha detto che una guardia l’ha colpita con un tubo mentre scendeva le scale per prendere dell’acqua Image
Abdul mi ha detto che le guardie l'hanno picchiato sulle piante dei piedi e sulle gambe per farlo confessare di aver aiutati altri a scappare. Image
Elijah mi ha detto: "Tre volte mi hanno picchiato, mentre prendevo da mangiare. Ci fanno sedere al sole o stare in piedi e guardare dritti verso il sole...mi hanno legato le mani e poi mi hanno colpito sulle piante dei piedi." Image

From what I can tell so far, the vaguely newish ideas in the #MigrationPact presented today are products of the same wishful thinking that created hellholes like Moria.
It is wrong to think that chance of drowning at sea, or prospect of detention upon arrival, or possibility of quick deportation will deter people from trying to reach Europe. People take dangerous, risky migration journeys because they have to, not on a lark.
The #MigrationPact proposes pre-screening and then accelerated border procedures for people coming from certain countries. These kinds of procedures are usually unfair and rarely that quick. Think #Moria

And now for a positive on the Migration Pact due out tomorrow. It would be really great if laid out a sensible and humane approach to border governance, with human rights as the starting point. A thread on what that could involve (A lot is here hrw.org/news/2018/06/1…) 1/X
Commission Prez von der Leyen said recently “sea rescue is compulsory and not optional.” Yes! Hopefully the Pact lays out what exactly this looks like: EU rescue missions, support (not obstruction) for NGO rescue groups, timely disembarkation in places of safety. Yes? 2/X
Commissioner Johansson acknowledged in July abuses against migrants & refugees at EU borders (there’s an awful lot of evidence of violent pushbacks) & opened the door to meaningful border monitoring. Great! Let’s make sure there's real accountability euobserver.com/migration/1488… 3/X

I don’t know about you, but I’m on pins and needles over the Pact on Migration & Asylum coming out tomorrow. The European Commission has kept the draft under wraps, but they seem awfully excited about it. Thread 1/X
I’m a little worried though. Starting with the imagery. We’ve gone From Fortress Europe to Heavily Guarded House. Commissioner Schinas said the proposal is like a 3-story house. euobserver.com/migration/1494… 2/X
On the 1st floor deals with countries like Turkey & Libya block the stairs. If you manage to get to the 2nd floor, Frontex is there to march you back outside. If you make it to the 3rd floor you’ll probably be locked in a closet until Mandatory Solidarity comes to say hi. 3/X

It sounds like the Italian government will tweak but not scrap or even fundamentally change its 2017 agreement with Libya's Government of National Accord on migration. Here's a thread (not sure yet how long) on why this matters internazionale.it/bloc-notes/ann…
The Italy-Libya Memorandum of Understanding was signed on February 2, 2017. It will renew automatically on February 2, 2020 for another three years unless either country notifies of changes by November 2, 2019 - this coming Saturday.
It's a terribly written accord that has served as the framework for technical, financial and training support Italy gives Libya's GNA, in particular support that enables the Libyan Coast Guard to intercept migrants at sea and return them to abusive, arbitrary detention in Libya.

I struggle to understand how 290 MEPs could vote against saving lives at sea. The EP rejected today a statement in favor of European compassion, fairness and responsibility. Image
Meanwhile, 104 people rescued by @SOSMedIntl and @MSF_Sea #OceanViking on Oct 18 are still waiting for a safe port where they can disembark Image
@SOSMedIntl @MSF_Sea And it seems Malta asked the Libyan Coast Guard to act in the Maltese search-and-rescue area on Oct 18, intercepting a boat and taking everyone back to nightmarish detention in Libya maltatoday.com.mt/news/national/…

Il massimo che possiamo dire del vertice di oggi a Malta sullo sbarco e il trasferimento delle persone salvate nel Mediterraneo? Sembra un passo nella giusta direzione. Image
@annalisacamilli @gadlernertweet @alessandrazinit @scandura @emavalenti @emmevilla Un accordo per garantire uno sbarco tempestivo di persone salvate in mare in un luogo sicuro è una buona cosa. Ma non conosciamo abbastanza dettagli per valutare se quello che si prevede sia un sistema equo e rispettoso dei diritti delle persone.
@annalisacamilli @gadlernertweet @alessandrazinit @scandura @emavalenti @emmevilla Un sistema equo dovrebbe includere:
-Registrazione efficiente seguita da un rapido ricollocamento.
-Nessuna detenzione automatica, nessuna detenzione per i bambini, e per gli adulti solo se strettamente necessario, per il tempo più breve necessario e in condizioni decenti.
