Deals to externalise #migration are extremely inhumane, disregard the realities & reasons for international mobility, and violate international laws and values on which Europe is supposedly based.
This letter is a shameful hymn to Fortress Europe.

🧵 Regularisation is not just about papers. It's about giving everyone the opportunity to lead a decent life.
Today we're launching a new toolkit we co-created with our members to help civil society campaign for a measure that benefits everyone.

📰 Proud to see our joint concerns around the #MigrationPact reflected on today's @guardian. This Pact will only lead to more border violence and racial discrimination. EU lawmakers must reject it as they enter final negotiations.

🧵 The EU #MigrationPact is one step closer. The Council has approved its position on a key piece of the Pact, the "Crisis Regulation", that would result in more detention, quicker deportations + criminalisation of help.

There are several reasons why we don't talk about "illegal" migrants. But maybe the strongest one is that calling somebody "illegal" denies them their humanity. Undocumented migrants are people too. Let's treat them as such.

The only way to prevent further deaths in the Mediterranean is to open safe regular routes for people to come to Europe.
The #MigrationPact the EU is to adopt doesn't say anything about this but only steps up immigration detention and deportations. See you at the next shipwreck.
10 years since the tragedy in Lampedusa... Will the EU 🇪🇺 Migration & Asylum Pact change anything?
