How “real” asylum recognition rates are in Greece in reality… About the temporariness of being a recognised refugee in Greece:
by D. Angelidis
The General Secretary of the Ministry of Citizen Protection and Public Order, Mr Ath. Andreoulakos is destroying consciously and illegally the work of the Asylum Committees while he is rejecting arbitrarily the renewal of the two-year protection status (subsidiary and humanitarian) of many refugees who then end up without papers.
(…)
NGOs speak of an industry of rejections when it comes to the renewal of humanitarian or subsidiary protection in Greece. The refugees who understood they had to renew their papers and who applied for that depend on the decision of the General Secretary of the Ministry. It is highly questionable if he has the expertise to take such a decision, but he doesn’t even examine case by case if the grounds of persecution in each case are still valid, instead he actually just rejects the applications and turns upside down the decisions which were taken two years ago by the Asylum Committees.
(…)
In one example of a renewal rejection he stated:
“he did not sufficiently explain why he could not live in another part of his country, like in Kabul, where since …read more

PERSBERICHT WE ARE HERE – HAVENSTRAAT AMSTERDAM 31-5-2014
De vluchtelingen van We Are Here , die vandaag de voormalige gevangenis in de Havenstraat moesten verlaten, hebben besloten niet te vertrekken.
Redenen hiervoor zijn dat terugkeer naar hun land van herkomst geen optie is. Al willen mensen terug, ze kunnen niet omdat hun land niet veilig is. Bovendien is een groot aantal vluchtelingen nog bezig een verblijfsvergunning te krijgen. Alle vluchtelingen zijn, na twee jaar van hot naar her te moeten, hetzij lichamelijk, hetzij psychisch, te ziek om op straat te overleven. Velen hebben hiervoor ook al jaren zonder papieren in Nederland getracht te overleven en in vluchtelingendetentie gezeten.
Burgemeester Van der Laan heeft zich zeer ingespannen de dakloze vluchtelingen te steunen, en daar zijn de vluchtelingen hem ook zeer dankbaar voor. Nu echter stelt hij dat te veel vluchtelingen niet meewerken aan hun terugkeer. Hetgeen nooit het doel van deze pilot is geweest.
1. In het Rapport van Vluchtelingen Werk Nederland staat zeer duidelijk dat het asielbeleid niet sluitend is en beter en zorgvuldiger moet worden. Veel van de uitgeprocedeerde vluchtelingen zijn slachtoffer van een onzorgvuldige asielprocedure waarbij de bewijzen van bv. hun identiteit of land van herkomst, te zwaar is. (VWN …read more

Burgemeester Van der Laan heeft veel energie gestopt in het steunen van de dakloze vluchtelingen, en dat
siert hem. Maar nu is hij boos dat veel vluchtelingen niet meewerken aan hun terugkeer. Hij haalde echter
vorig jaar Vluchtelingenwerk Nederland er bij om uit te zoeken, hoe het nu eigenlijk zit met de asielkansen
en de terugkeerbaarheid van de uitgeprocedeerde asielzoekers van Wij Zijn Hier.
Na gedegen onderzoek was hun antwoord tweeledig:
1. Veel meer dan de helft had niet op deze manier afgewezen mogen worden.
2. Van de groep die onder de huidige regels misschien wel terecht is afgewezen, komt een groot deel uit
landen waar je met goed fatsoen geen mensen heen uit kan zetten.
Recentelijk bevestigden de Duitse rechter, de Verenigde Naties en twee mensenrechtenorganisaties dit laatste.
Daarmee is het mantra dat uitgeprocedeerden automatisch terug moeten, definitief van tafel. Zowel Duitsland
als de EG, als een snel groeiend deel van de tweede kamer menen dat het daarom onjuist is om zulke mensen
zonder enige kans om hun eigen broek op te houden, op straat te gooien.
Onlangs gaf ook staatssecretaris Teeven toe dat het asielbeleid niet sluitend is, en hij gebruikte zelfs het
woord ‘onuitzetbaren’. Daarmee is ook de overeenkomst tussen Den Haag en burgemeester weg. Immers,
burgemeesters zouden ophouden …read more

How long? Not long! Stop killing us. We are not here to die, we demand our rights now.
Hamburg, 30.05.2014. The group Lampedusa in Hamburg, Nato war victims and evidence of the war, has been on the street in Hamburg for over one year, without any concrete solution. During this political struggle we lost two group members: Samuel Mensah and Francis Kwame. They lost their life while fighting for their rights.
“A right delayed is a right denied.” Hamburgs authorites betrayed our fundamental human rights and dignity. “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
The regime in Libya was changed because of political and economical interests that brought chaos and a failed state. The German authorities must follow other european states by recognizing us as the unprecedented victims of war from Libya.
Today Lampedusa in Hamburg, which consists of more than 300 members, is once again on the street as a result of neglectance and ignorance by the senate of Hamburg. Our future is at stake, our psychological and traumatic stress is increased every day. But already more than 170 institutions, political groups and networks and a big solidarity supporting group proved to the world: …read more

The appeal against detention that was brought to court by the Greek Council for Refugees is of broader significance as it was the first case of its kind against the “endless detention duration. The decision 2255/23.5.2014 says that the endless detention defined as measure of compulsory stay in a detention centre by the states Legal Council Opinion 44/2014 is not according to law.
It states:
“it is not founded on any legislative provision”
“the compulsory measure imposed on the affected person is actually a continuation of his detention”
The case affects an Afghan refugee who was detained until May 5th 2014 a total of 18 months. Three days before that date (not even three months before as the Councils Opinion had defined) he received a documented informing him that his detention would be continued until he would “cooperate” to his “voluntary” deportation. The court decision was ruled on May 23rd and the refugee was released.

ATHENS, May 28 2014 (IPS) – The evolution of immigration and border control policy in Greece and its interdependence with European funding suggests an agenda which has been decided above national legislatures with strong coordination between European political actors and economic interests, while ignoring the human suffering it produces.
Since February, the Greek authorities have taken another step towards harsher treatment of irregular immigrants by announcing a policy of indefinite detention until repatriation. Indefinite detention has been based on an opinion of the Legal Council of the Greek State and will be implemented even in cases where repatriation is not feasible.
Earlier this week, a Greek court considered the premises of this decision to be against national and European legislation and asked for it to be revoked. Authorities have yet to react to this decision.
Since the summer of 2012, when police launched a crackdown policy on irregular immigrants with ‘Operation Xenios Zeus’, administrative detention has been implemented on a massive scale, often applied for the maximum period of 18 months.
Now the opinion of the Council of State considers this extension to be not ‘detention’ but a restrictive measure for the benefit of immigrants who otherwise, if …read more
