The EU may get a new solidarity mechanism. Solidarity with people in search of safety is still lacking. Read our analysis of how the Pact will trap people on the EU's external border and hinders access to asylum: https://t.co/Nx7yzl4WFK

The Migration Pact has not yet taken effect but EU governments are already proposing further deteriorations of people's rights. The Pact is bad news. Its compromises are not the end stage. They are a launch pad for a further crackdown on refugees. https://t.co/oKqswGSuQt

Three people died, twenty-five people still missing in a shipwreck off Samos. Europe cannot go on like this. The price of Europe's misplaced fear cannot be the lives of people in search of safety. We need a more humane asylum system with more safe routes. We need them now.

Vier jaar na Moria is Lesbos vergeten

Help ons om mensen in deze omstandigheden van juridische informatie te blijven voorzien door onze co-host te worden. Samen helpen we mensen hun rechten te begrijpen en bereiden we ze voor op hun asielgehoor. https://t.co/2VJSb61exZ

Het is vier jaar geleden dat vluchtelingenkamp Moria afbrandde. Het Europese vluchtelingenbeleid wordt nog steeds gekenmerkt door verslechterende opvangomstandigheden. In de @volkskrant beschrijven we hoe vier jaar na de brand Lesbos vergeten is. https://t.co/aQm362Htis

Help us to keep providing essential legal information to the people trapped in these circumstances by co-hosting a legal empowerment session. Together we can help people learn about their rights and procedures and prepare for their upcoming interview https://t.co/2VJSb61exZ

Four years ago, the Moria refugee camp burned down. Politicians promised "No more Morias". Now, bad reception conditions are copied throughout Europe. In the @volkskrant we argue that four years after Moria, Lesvos has been forgotten [🇳🇱]. https://t.co/aQm362Htis

Four years ago, the Moria Refugee Camp was reduced to ashes. Today, the systemic failures persist. Fenix reaffirms its commitment to working towards a future where the promise of "No more Morias" is not an empty one, but a reality. https://t.co/TkYXNIdy6B

In the @EP_Justice, @LeijtensFrontex says that the shift of funds away from @Frontex leads to an "almost dangerous situation". Dangerous for whom exactly? For the people looking for safety Frontex has been blocking access to asylum for? For the people deported by Frontex?

Today @EP_Justice speaks with @Frontex director @LeijtensFrontex. When Leijtens took office, he promised "zero deaths" at the border. Last week, @ABoatReport showed Frontex covering up involvement in actions hindering access to asylum on Lesvos. Time to live up to the promise.

The Mediterranean is a graveyard and the most vulnerable refugees cannot reach the EU to find protection here. Safe routes are needed but the Migration Pact does too little to create those. Read what the new Resettlement Regulation will mean in practice: https://t.co/2IHNHT9XaY

Tomorrow we re-launch our newsletter! Sign up here: https://t.co/znf1R0RuUk to stay up to date on the situation of people who seek asylum in Greece, and our work in solidarity with them. We aim to show how YOU can make a difference as part of the Fenix community!

OUR WORK IN ACTION Follow us this summer to learn more about the different aspects of our work! Help us to make this impact possible: by donating 25 euro you allow us to be available for people to offer guidance on their procedure for a whole day! https://t.co/RBJGraxhNW

The Greek authorities should take note of these findings while completing the new Vastria CCAC on Lesvos. The camp should: ❌ not deprive people of their liberty ❌ not put people in detention ❌ not isolate people from the wider community

The @Amnesty report on the Closed Controlled Access Centre of Samos calls the centre a “dystopian nightmare” that keeps people in unlawful detention. The EU, which funds the CCACs, cannot let the conditions in Greek camps be the blueprint for Europe. https://t.co/onSb54wjwl

We wish all the members of the new @EP_Justice a lot of courage and wisdom in the coming five years. Let's work to: ✅ Protect the right to asylum ✅ Improve reception conditions ✅ Open safe and regular migration pathways

Today the @EP_Justice will debate the implementation of the EU Migration Pact with @YlvaJohansson for the first time in the new term. On Lesvos, we already see that the Pact's implementation will lead to widescale human rights violations: https://t.co/JD0CL5vQr1

@FenixAid continues to argue for a more just and equitable asylum system that ensures people have effective access to international protection. We also continue our work of empowering refugees who arrive in Europe by equipping them with legal information.

❌ VDL: Externalisation of migration is a viable way to prevent migration. ✅ Externalisation does not result in fewer people arriving in Europe. It does, however, endanger peoples' human rights. Europe should take responsibility.
