In search of a dignified life thousands of refugees and migrants die at the borders of Europe. These are people who are driven from their homelands by war, persecution, violence and miserable living conditions. In order to escape they squeeze into tiny boats, hide in lorries, sleep in very basic campsites or in front of high security border controls. Drowning, suffocation or dying of thirst are frequent occurrences. Many die of exhaustion.
Germany and other EU states react towards those seeking protection at its borders with armed resistance and deterrence.
We demand:
- Stop the deathtrap at the EU borders! FRONTEX activities which violate human rights must cease!
- Human life must be saved. If someone is in danger of drowning before our eyes, we must help.
- Refugees must be protected. Access to fair asylum procedures in Europe must be guaranteed. The Geneva Refugee Convention and the European Convention on Human Rights must be upheld.
