More than half a year ago, #Moria burned down. What could have been a wake-up call for European politics was just another disaster in a long sequence of European failures. Today, hundreds of people still have to survive in Greek camps. Photos: Diakonie & Cemsid Kiy Image
Tent camps without infrastructure continue to define the lives of many vulnerable people.

We still do not accept the "European solution" of governments that transfers the burden onto the shoulders of refugees.
As a civil society, we stand with many European communities for policies that put human rights first. This summer, we will fight for a policy without camps, without deaths and without sealing off borders. Get active yourself and help us change politics. #Seebrücke

One year ago today, #GeorgeFloyd was violently killed by a police officer in the USA. Our thoughts are with his family and friends and we mourn this loss with them.
#BlackLivesMatter Image
This killing was not an isolated incident, but the symptom of a structural problem: it is called #racism! Just yesterday it was reported that #BlackLivesMatter activist #SashaJohnson from the UK was shot and her life is in danger.
This happened after countless death and murder threats that Sasha has endured because of her struggle against #racism.

Based on the analysis of many witness statements, the accounts of those affected, &human rights monitoring on the ground, @teammareliberum was able to reconstruct 321 cases in 2020 in which a total of 9,798 people were pushed back to Turkey with physical &psychological violence.
Some of them had already reached the Greek islands and were on European soil before they were denied their right to apply for asylum and forced back.

The UN organizations IOM and UNHCR call on the EU to end illegal pushbacks, violence against refugees and collective deportations at the EU's external borders. The organizations report massive human rights abuses at EU borders, including physical violence, abuse and worse.
The policy of #Seehofer, #Kurz and Co. has failed and was designed from the beginning to impose a policy of closure at the expense of human rights.
This policy is already unacceptable due to the deliberate violation of human rights and additionally ignores the great willingness to receive refugees in many European communities and regions.
