📖 We re-examine the validity of the 'liberal constraints' thesis in view of recent legislatives and non-legislatives changes, such as the Migration and Asylum Pact and the push for more externalisation.
🙏 Many thanks to Agnieszka Weinar for managing the process!

The European Union and member states are criminally complicit in Libya when it comes to migration, said the head of the European Parliament's human rights committee.
True! I'm caught up in the Greek context and got confused, I was hoping this would have some kind of (positive) consequences here
Thanks Andreina! I also wonder how this will impact other EU member states' STC policies, like this year's judicial/political developments in Greece regarding Turkey.
1/🧵What did the EU Court of Justice actually say about "safe countries of origin"? And what does it mean for the 🇮🇹🇦🇱 Italy-Albania migration deal? Let’s break it down: thread 👇
CJEU, asylum law II
New judgment: Member States cannot currently designate asylum-seekers' countries of origin as 'safe' unless that applies to everyone - but EU law will change in near future - judgment complicates application of Italy/Albania deal for now - curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/...
The EU has proposed letting member states drop ‘connection requirement’ from the ‘safe third country’ asylum concept
@gaiaromeo.bsky.social & @frowinrausis.bsky.social argue this marks a shift toward an ‘(un)safe fourth country’ approach that some have already - unsuccessfully - tried

"I’m traveling to Libya next week or the week after to get involved with those…I know there will be some criticism about getting involved with authorities, which are a bit dodgy - to be diplomatic again. But we have to get involved."

Je lis le Figaro Mag sur le wokisme (cascade réalisée par un pro, attention) et c'est encore plus délirant que prévu. Les personnes interrogées disent explicitement que l'Union européenne est infiltrée par les Frères Musulmans et que c'est pour ça qu'elle finance le wokisme à l'université. Si si.
€1,500 and a one-way ticket to Damascus
This is how Cyprus is deporting Syrians from the country, under the guise of voluntary returns, with the EU's financial support, and help from Frontex' specialists

➡️Unlike other legal instruments in the Pact, the Screening Regulation does not modify existing rules. Instead, it codifies practices often previously undertaken informally or only formalised in law or policy at the national level which form part of external border management.
🧵ECRE has published a comments paper on the Screening Regulation
Find out all about the Regulation introducing the screening of third-country nationals at the external borders ⬇️
This isn’t just a distant crisis—it implicates us all.
As EU citizens 🇪🇺 and taxpayers 💰, we are funding policies that enable these abuses. The EU continues to support and finance Tunisia’s (and Libya - among others) border control operations, despite mounting evidence of human rights violations.
🚨 New Report Exposes Abuses at the Libyan-Tunisian Border 🚨
Honored to contributed to the launch of a new (but sadly unsurprising) report exposing systemic violence against migrants and refugees at the Libyan-Tunisian border.
Dessin d'Anouk Ricard. On y voit un chien debout, vêtu d'un pull marinière et d'un pantalon bleu. Il tient deux feuilles de papier dans les mains et s'adresse à un canard assis derrière un bureau. Le chien : "Mais tu écris n'importe quoi, en fait ?" Le canard : "Oui, il faut pas ?" Le chien : "Ah non, il faut un peu réfléchir."
Anouk Ricard est finaliste du Grand Prix d’Angoulême. L'occasion de repartager cette case, une des meilleures de l'histoire de la BD, à mon humble avis.

Italian prosecutors are investigating Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and two government ministers for repatriating a Libyan general wanted by the International Criminal Court, Meloni said today.
Alors que 98,6% des personnes sous OQTF n’ont jamais été condamnées par la justice et que les experts du CEPII(dépendant de Matignon) expliquent que «les études concluent unanimement à l’absence d’impact de l’immigration sur la délinquance» Bruno Retailleau estime que «la réalité dément cette étude»

New Working Paper: Teenage boys and girls in Norway are more ideologically polarized than ever. Using data for 130,000 high-schoolers over 34 years, I find that a surge in anti-feminism among boys is driving much of the recent trend.📈

The European Court of Human Rights ruled against Greece in a case involving push-back practices at the Greek-Turkish border. Is this likely to become a landmark case?
