Vanavond was ik in gesprek bij @DeBalie over pushbacks

"Frontex heeft de verplichting om te rapporteren over mensenrechtenschendingen en deze te voorkomen. Als je dan bewust en consequent wegkijkt, ben je medeplichtig."

1/8 #BorderTech is increasingly being used to make decisions & predictions about millions of people on the move. Despite popular public perception that tech is objective & less brutal than humans, its use in border policing deepens discrimination & leads to tragic loss of life.

In 2021 werden er weer 12.000 mensen genadeloos én illegaal de 🇪🇺grens over teruggeduwd.

Worden we vanwege Oekraïne barmhartiger? Of stopt het recht nog steeds aan de grens?

Morgen 19.30 ga ik in @DeBalie in gesprek over #pushbacks

De directeur van het Europees grensagentschap stapt op door onderzoek naar illegale pushbacks.
Europarlementariër Tineke Strik pleitte hier al lang voor.

Tineke Strik (GroenLinks) za 30 apr 2022, 12:55

Leggeri's email to his staff exposes the reasons why he damaged Frontex: resisting and even ridiculing its task to prevent and combat human rights violations at the borders. Guarding the borders and human rights compliance should be intrinsically linked in the EU.

Steffen Lüdke vr 29 apr 2022, 17:53

Exclusive: In his last email to staff, Fabrice #Leggeri denies Frontex's involvement in pushbacks ("I could rebuke all allegations") and complains Frontex’s mandate is discretely being transformed "into a sort of Fundamental Rights Body". // @derspiegel

Tineke Strik (GroenLinks) vr 29 apr 2022, 12:44

Ontslag Frontex directeur Leggeri is eerste stap om mensenrechten hoog op de agenda te krijgen in het Agentschap. Nu grondige wijziging structuur en cultuur Frontex. Maar ook lidstaten en Commissie moeten hun verantwoordelijkheid nemen om pushbacks effectief uit te bannen.

Tineke Strik (GroenLinks) vr 29 apr 2022, 12:38

Leggeri resigns because 'Frontex mandate has silently but effectively changed'. Meaning: I never understood that Frontex must protect fundamental rights in all its actions. Next director must make this a top priority. But also the Commission needs to stop impunity at the borders.

Steffen Lüdke vr 29 apr 2022, 11:10

Following our investigations, #Frontex Director Fabrice #Leggeri has offered his resignation and communicated his decision to the Management Board, according to our info. // @derspiegel @LHreports

Tineke Strik (GroenLinks) vr 29 apr 2022, 09:31

We are waiting for confirmation, but Legerri's resignation (and his immediate right hand) is the only chance for Frontex to start prioritising fundamental rights and prevent violations instead of covering them up. His departure should not be 'prevented'. politico.eu/newsletter/bru…

Tineke Strik (GroenLinks) do 28 apr 2022, 15:28

Again, journalists find evidence of @Frontex's involvement in pushbacks, conveniently labelled 'prevention of departure'.

My reaction in @guardian: “Fundamental change in leadership is needed, Leggeri lost all credibility to protect fundamental rights”.

theguardian.com/global-develop…

Tineke Strik (GroenLinks) wo 27 apr 2022, 18:46

Again, Frontex seems to legitimize pushbacks by accepting Greece’s lies. Don’t they understand it makes the agency complicit? They should prevent instead of facilitate fundamental rights violations.

Lighthouse Reports wo 27 apr 2022, 18:37

1/ Europe’s border agency Frontex denies involvement in pushbacks but their own database shows the exact opposite. By analysing @Frontex data @LHreports can reveal how they illegal push backs are registered and concealed
