A decade after surviving #ISIS #genocide, #Yazidis who once found protection in Germany are now being deported back to #Iraq - including to the same IDP camps they once fled.
My new long-read for @uk.theconversation.com, based on fieldwork in Iraqi #Kurdistan.

In February, I attended #ECtHR Grand Chamber hearings in three #EU-Belarus border cases involving alleged “migrant #instrumentalisation”. In my latest piece for @verfassungsblog.de I show why #Latvian, #Lithuanian & #Polish arguments cannot justify any derogations from #asylum seekers' rights.
My take on Poland’s “suspension of the right to asylum” and its impact on the EU’s common #asylum framework is now live in @euobserver.com.
I highlight how the common EU asylum policy is effectively unraveling, with broad political support for its demise.

📢My latest paper on the EU-#Belarus border crisis is now available open access in the AVANT journal.
It compares LV, LT and PL approaches, critically engages with the migrant #instrumentalisation paradigm, and explores the EU-level response to the crisis.

This 📕 is for anyone interested in family reunification, free movement & UK immigration law.
🚨Pleased to share my latest paper on the 🇪🇺-Belarus border crisis, which compares LV, LT and PL responses to the perceived ‘migrant #instrumentalisation’. It combines legal analysis & interviews with volunteers, lawyers, and ∼40 non-EU nationals, predominantly from #Iraq.
