    Joint Statement calling for the dismissal of UNHCR’s special envoy Vincent Cochetel

    On Tuesday, 6 September 2022, while families of the disappeared and deceased at EU borders came together for a protest action in Zarzis, Tunisia, Vincent Cochetel, the UNHCR’s special envoy for the Western and Central Mediterranean sent out a tweet:

    “Grieving for the loss. But the same mothers had no problem encouraging or funding their children to embark on those dangerous journeys. Like in Senegal, symbolically prosecuting parents for putting at risk their children could trigger serious attitudinal change on death journeys.”

    Blaming mourning mothers, some of whom have searched for answers for over a decade, and even calling for their criminalisation through ‘symbolic prosecution’ is simply outrageous. In this joint statement, we want to denounce Mr Cochetel’s words in the strongest of terms. Mr Cochetel sent his tweet as a response to a ‘CommemorAction’, a large gathering in Zarzis that brought together the families of the disappeared, local fishermen, as well as activists from Africa and Europe. While the mothers, who are deeply traumatised, were publicly demanding answers, Mr Cochetel insulted them by making them responsible for their sons’ disappearance.

    Some of the mothers and sisters of the disappeared have responded to Mr Cochetel:

    Jalila Taamallah (mother): It is the visa and border system that has put migrants in danger, not their mothers. It is the fault of migration policies that cause the deaths of people crossing the Mediterranean. Therefore we will continue to participate in the demonstrations for freedom of movement. You can’t kill our demand for truth and justice.

Hajer Ayachi (mother): It should be a shame to accuse mothers and sisters of missing migrants who have lost their loved ones of being responsible for their deaths. We have been fighting against governments since 2011 to show that it is migration policies that endanger the lives of our sons, not us. Every time the authorities deny their responsibility our sons die for a second time.

Gamra Chaieb (mother): We, the mothers of the disappeared, consider it a great shame that we are given the responsibility for the death of our sons. Our sons are victims and so are we, without any response from the governments and the visa system. They are the criminals, they pushed our sons to leave because they were in misery and then they abandoned us. My son left because he was sick with cancer. He just wanted to get well and live for his family and his little daughter.

Samia Jabloun (mother): I believe that this man is sick because never a mother pushes her son to immigrate. He is not humanitarian, he does not feel our pain, the policies of the “third world countries” are responsible and also the European Union which takes advantage of the wealth of these countries and makes them poor, for this reason the young people are unemployed, the poverty which pushes them to immigrate to improve their standard of living.

Awatef Daoudi (mother): If our children go to sea it is to do good to their families because in their country they are badly treated and badly paid and there is always segregation. Those who have money have the power and can do whatever they want even for visas, these are the businessmen and politicians, but most of the young people do not have rights and that is why they throw themselves into the water. In both cases, either at sea or in their country, they are dead. But unfortunately it is a shame that our government does not want to keep our young people well.

Nourhene Khenissi (sister): Before attacking the mothers of the disappeared, it would have been better if you had criticised the Tunisian and Italian states, especially the European Union, because it is the first and last cause of all these tragedies. And know that freedom of movement and travelling is a right for every human being.

Besbes Sarra (sister): It’s not true what he wrote about the mothers of the missing migrants, there are no families who throw their sons into the sea which represents hell and danger. So you don’t have the right to judge the feelings of the family because the relationship between the mother and her son is not just a word but it is more than that. You have to know that especially the relationship between all the members of the family is intimate because the son for the mother replaces the father, for the sister the brother represents the second father and all the supports of life, for the father the son represents the person who is the first responsible for the family during his absence and for the brother he is the help and the power. Finally, it is important to know that if a member of the family is absent, the whole family will be devastated.

Rania Abdeltif (sister): The mother will not put her son in danger, on the contrary, the mother wants her son to always be by her side, but the young people did not have a chance in their country, so they decided to emigrate to improve the life of their family. The mothers will never abandon their children, they are now fighting for their missing children. The feeling of a mother or sister losing her son or brother is a very painful feeling that no one will understand unless they live it.

    Instead of blaming the EU border and visa regime, instead of denouncing the deadly migration policies of Europe, Mr Cochetel chose to blame the victims, turning them into perpetrators. This is unbearable and we are astonished: how can such a person remain in the position of a high-level official at the UNHCR?

    We acknowledge that Mr Cochetel has apologised and we also appreciate that the UNHCR has apologised for the statement of their special envoy. Nonetheless, and not least as Mr Cochetel has made unacceptable remarks already in the past, we believe that this is not enough. We call on the UNHCR to take action and to dismiss their special envoy or for Mr Cochetel to resign.

    Importantly, we believe that the UN agency’s problems are not solved through the dismissal of an individual. The UNHCR as a whole has deep institutional flaws and has time and again failed those it claims to protect. The behaviour of the UNHCR toward vulnerable groups in places such as Libya and Tunisia, and the appalling response of their staff to refugee protests there, highlight some of the many severe shortcomings of this UN agency.

    Déclaration

    Mères / parents et familles des disparus Marocains

    Les mères de famille, et les amis des personnes disparues candidates à la migration informel ont reçu avec une grande surprise et un grand regret le tweet déclaration du 6 septembre de M. Vincent Cochetel, le Rapporteur spécial des Nations Unies sur les migrations. Méditerranée central et occidental , de tenir les mères responsables des tragédies des noyés et des disparus en mer, au lieu de critiquer et de blâmer son institution Le HCR et d’autres institutions telles que l’Organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM), et de parler de leurs démarches discriminatoires et racistes pour ces institutions, qui ont été démontrées par la crise ukrainienne et qui ont n’a pas le courage de condamner les politiques européennes meurtrières, a lancé des accusations contre les familles dans un geste étrange du genre.

    Cette déclaration indique que le respect du droit international et international humanitaire n’existe pas dans son dictionnaire, car il représente une instance internationale dans laquelle les droits de l’homme sont censés être respectés, et qui tant vers ces déclarations pour criminaliser les mères et les familles, et pour légitimer le comportement des pays du Sud à l’égard du ce dossier des disparus, ainsi les pays du Nord, dont l’Europe, fuient ses responsabilités morales et politique à l’égard de ce dossier résultant des politiques européennes téméraires et meurtrières, légitimant l’externalisation et militarisation des frontières, en pompant encore des milliards d’euros pour équiper et armer l’Agence européenne Frontex, cette agence dont les violations et les crimes ne vous sont pas cachés, alors que les mères vous semblaient le petit mur auquel vous accrochez un piquet à ces crimes.

    La jeunesse perdue du Sud migre à la recherche de la liberté, de la dignité et de la justice qui lui étaient avortés dans son pays, et que la politique de votre institution n’a pas approuvée après avoir volé son rêve dans son pays en pillant les richesses, en appauvrissant les peuples, en alimentant guerres et conflits dans les pays du Sud, et établir un système injuste dans la liberté de circulation à travers l’ère du régime des visas injuste et inéquitable.

    Ainsi, les mères, familles et amis des personnes disparues candidates à la migration informel au Maroc confirment ce qui suit :

    • Condamnant ces déclarations, qui touchent aux sentiments et aux sentiments d’injustice que nous ressentons après l’absence de nos proches, même si l’élément d’excuse que vous avez présenté ne cachera pas que vous ne serez jamais partisan des questions de droits de l’homme les plus simples et que votre naturel la position est simplement sur la touche.
    • Cessation immédiate de la duplicité et de l’hypocrisie de vous et de vos institutions, ce qui a été confirmé par la crise ukrainienne.
    • Les mères de famille, et les amis des personnes disparues, candidates à la migration informel et bloquées aux frontières, ont insisté pour savoir, clarifier la vérité, rendre justice et révéler le sort de ceux qui ont disparu à la lumière de ces politiques et frontières meurtrières .
    • Appelant les organisations et réseaux de défense des droits humains à condamner ces propos honteux et racistes,
    • Le fait que ces déclarations honteuses à notre encontre ne feront qu’augmenter la détermination et lutte des mères des familles, et des amis des disparus et leur détermination à lutter pour la connaissance et l’élucidation de la vérité sur le sort de leurs enfants et la justice. des politiques d’immigration meurtrières et nous renouvelons notre soutien aux luttes, à la lutte et à la fermeté des mères de famille, des familles et des amis des disparus dans les pays d’Amérique centrale.

    Et notre lutte continue pour que nos enfants révèlent toute la vérité et justice.

    What’s Included?

    All included is een initiatief dat strijdt voor vrijheid van mobiliteit en recht op verblijf voor migranten. In een tijd waarin globalisering een feit is moet migratie erkend worden als een deel van een package deal. All included dus. Dit betekent: geen illegaliteit, geen vreemdelingendetentie en geen gedwongen uitzettingen.

    Met het verdwijnen van de nationale grenzen verdwijnt de nationale identiteit. Iedereen wordt wereldburger en ongeacht afkomst verdient eenieder gelijke rechten en gelijke kansen. Daarom ook voor migranten gelijkwaardige ‘all included’ rechten en plichten.

    Allincluded.nl strijdt voor een open samenleving middels buitenparlementaire acties die ingrijpen in het politiek klimaat van assimilatie, geslotenheid en angst. Middels directe hulp aan uitgeprocedeerde asielzoekers en andere mensen zonder verblijfsvergunning worden aanklachten tegen de wantoestanden van de huidige politiek uitgedragen. Wij willen een bijdrage leveren aan het publieke debat met alternatieve visies op migratie en globalisering die uitgaat van open grenzen, solidariteit en eigen initiatief.

    All Included is actief in Afrique-Europe Interact (AEI), een netwerk van Afrikaanse en Europese zelf-organisaties. AEI werkt enerzijds aan gezamenlijke projecten en acties en anderzijds aan onderlinge ondersteuning.

    Solidariteitsactie met Sea-Watch 3 tegen mogelijke vervolging Sea-Watch kapitein Carola Rackete en voor iedereen op de vlucht naar een beter leven*

    De Vrienden van Sea-Watch organiseren donderdag 4 juli 2019 een solidariteitsactie met de kapitein van de Sea-Watch 3 en eenieder die vlucht op zoek naar een beter leven.

    Waar: Spui, Amsterdam

    Datum/Tijdstip: donderdag 4 juli 2019, 17.00 – 19.00 uur

    Hoewel kapitein Carola Rackete in vrijheid is gesteld loopt het onderzoek nog en ze kan alsnog vervolgd worden. Het schip de Sea-Watch 3 is ook nog steeds in beslag genomen voor onderzoek door de Italiaanse autoriteiten. De VVD heeft ondertussen een voorstel ingediend voor het criminaliseren van de hulpverleners zoals van de Sea-Watch 3. Allen die mensen ‘doelbewust oppikken’ uit zee, zouden de laatste schakel zijn in de keten van mensensmokkelaars. Deze VVD ‘proefballon’ wordt 4 juli in de Tweede Kamer besproken.

    De Vrienden van Sea-Watch stellen: ‘Onbegrijpelijk dat de VVD voorstelt om hlpverleners te criminaliseren die mensenlevens redden op de Middellandse Zee. Deze mensen komen vaak uit Libië, waar vannacht nog tientallen migranten zijn omgekomen die onder erbarmelijke omstandigheden opgesloten zaten in een Libisch detentiekamp, door een bombardement. Wij roepen iedereen op om steun te betuigen aan de Sea-Watch 3 op 4 juli 17 uur op het Spui tijdens de manifestatie.

    Kapitein Carola Rackete voer vorige week zonder toestemming de haven van Lampedusa binnen, nadat ze tevergeefs meer dan twee weken wachtte op instructies van de betrokken autoriteiten, waaronder Nederland en Italië, om de nog overgebleven 40 geredde personen van boord te laten gaan. Door haar actie heeft ze de rechten van de geredde mensen afgedwongen om op een veilige plaats van boord te gaan. Dit is ook de zienswijze van de Italiaanse rechter, die haar gisteren onmiddellijk in vrijheid stelde.

    De Sea-Watch 3 was één van de weinige schepen die nog voer op de Middellandse zee, maar dit zal vanaf 15 augustus praktisch onmogelijk worden door nieuwe Nederlandse regelgeving.

    Tijdens de actie zullen de actievoerders een die-inn uitvoeren en gaan sprekers in op de huidige situatie op zee: Anne Dekker van Sea-Watch, Yusuf Adam Suali van Rederij Lampedusa/We Are Here en Mark Akkerman van Stop Wapenhandel.

    De demonstranten eisen van de Nederlandse overheid:

    1. Roep de Italiaanse regering op om Carola Rackete niet te vervolgen.
      Stop het criminaliseren van (steunverlening aan) vluchtelingen!
    2. Laat de Sea-Watch 3, welke vaart onder Nederlandse vlag, haar noodgedwongen reddingswerk weer zo snel mogelijk hervatten.
    3. Vluchtelingen welkom, vrijheid van beweging voor iedereen!

    Sur la situation d’expulsé-e-s, de refoulé-e-s et de “candidat-e-s à la migration” selon l’exemple de Sokodé/Togo

    L’Association Togolaise des Expulsés (ATE) était fondé en 2008 à Sokodé, la deuxième plus grande ville du Togo, par des gens qui avaient été expulsé-e-s au Togo de différents pays – entre autres de l’Allemagne, de la Suisse et des Pays Bas. L’engagement de l’ATE se manifeste sous forme de soutien pratique et d’aide mutuelle pour des gens qui se trouvent dans des conditions de vie précaires après leur expulsion et aussi de la sensibilisation de la société pour des questions autour la migration et les droits des réfugié-e-s et migrant-e-s.


    Depuis quelques ans, l’ATE, fondé en tant que auto-organisation d’expulsé-e-s, se focalise de plus en plus sur la situation de jeunes gens qui se fuirent actuellement du Togo ou partent en migration.
    L’ATE contribue à donner un image réaliste des multiples dangers sur les trajets de migration à ceux qui veulent ou qui doivent partir.
    Comme beaucoup de mouvements de la société civile africaine, l’ATE se prononce aussi contre les violations des droits humains et les crimes meurtriers sur les trajets de la migration – et contre un régime frontalier imposé par les états européens qui laisse des gens mourir dans le désert et dans la mer et qui paye d’argent aux milices libéennes et à certains gouvernements africains pour empêcher des gens africain-e-s coûte que coûte de se mettre en route vers l’Europe.

    ATE est aussi active dans le projet Alarme Phone Sahara – une initiative pratique d’organisations de la société civile africaine et européenne contre les conditions dangereuses et meurtrières sur les trajets de la fuite et de la migrationà travers les pays du Sahel et du Sahara.

  • Transnational summer camp 9th – 14th July in ZAD near Nantes & NoBorder Camp 1-4 August 2019 near Rotterdam

    [NoBorder Camp 1-4 August NL underneath]

    Over the last years, the flight routes to Europe have shiften from the Balkans to the Central Med, to Spain. Each shift creates structures of solidarity in new places and lets our network grow, while old structures slowly fade away. Moreover, in the last five years about two million people arrived in Europe via these flight routes. Many are still struggling against deportations and for their right to stay. Many others achieved a status and struggle for better living conditions. We call for this summer camp, to bring together different struggles to fight for freedom of movement and equal social rights. Transborder means for us to bridge structures along different flight routes and to create common strategies to fight for a society based on openness and solidarity and not on exclusion and exploitation.

    Please contact us, if you have any questions: tsc2019@protonmail.com
    ZAD near Nantes: https://zad.nadir.org/?lang=nl

    We are looking forward to meeting you all there!

    Over the last years, the flight routes to Europe have shiften from the Balkans to the Central Med, to Spain. Each shift creates structures of solidarity in new places and lets our network grow, while old structures slowly fade away. Moreover, in the last five years about two million people arrived in Europe via these flight routes. Many are still struggling against deportations and for their right to stay. Many others achieved a status and struggle for better living conditions. We call for this summer camp, to bring together different struggles to fight for freedom of movement and equal social rights. Transborder means for us to bridge structures along different flight routes and to create common strategies to fight for a society based on openness and solidarity and not on exclusion and exploitation.

    We ask all of you to save the date and to plan for your participation for the full four days (plus the arrival and departure time/day). Our main aim is to create a space for a deepening exchange and for strategical discussions on the struggles for freedom of movement, for equal rights for all and for an open and solidary society. The bases for this meeting are the networking processes all over Europe and Africa, which developed and continued during the last years along the various flight routes as well as against deportations and exclusion. Thus, we will try to make it possible, that self-organized activists with a refugee and migrant background can join and we will try to invite as many of our partner groups and organizations, who are active on the African continent, as possible.

    Our approach and wishes for the summer camp: In the following five points we summarize our approach for this meeting as far as we discussed it in the preparation group:

    • Attendance: All participants should stay for the full four days of the meeting, which will take place from 10th in the morning to the 13th in the evening. The 9th of July (Tuesday) is planned as arrival day, the 14th of July (Sunday) as departure day (we will organize shuttles from Nantes to the ZAD area and back only on these two days). We want to avoid a disturbing fluctuation and build a summer camp community from the beginning to the end.
    • Respect: All participants should take into consideration the networking nature of this gathering: to appreciate the multiplicity of starting points, methods and political priorities or at least to respect this diversity of groups and organisations.
    • Exchange: We hope for a mutual interest or expect at least respect to each other. The main format of exchange and strategical discussion will be working groups and other kind of meetings, which will foster horizontal debates and in which many different people can talk (instead of big podiums with a few lengthy speakers).
    • Freedom of Movement and Equal Rights: The summer camp is open to all who share the idea of freedom of movement and equal rights for everybody and who want to contribute to the struggles against deportation and exclusion.
    • Activism: The summer camp is not a space to do researches or journalism and of course no place for any kind of commercial business. We will discuss and decide in the preparation process, in which way we want to document common (interim) results or also the projects and initiatives represented in the multiplicity of participants.

    The Preparation of the Program as Process: We are in the very beginning of drafting the preliminary program and it should become a collective process within next months with all participants and their various interests. So far, it is clear, that we want to start on day 1 (10.07.2019) with an open space, with maps and info-tables, with a lot of informal talk and first small workshops to get to know each other, to get an overview about the participating groups and initiatives, their geographical allocations and as well as their main topics and methods. The following three days should be dedicated to a strategical exchange and we will start soon a common process to define strategical issues from various points of views and of experiences. All this has to be developed during the next months and all groups/participants are invited to contribute to this process.

    We suggest to limit all workshops to the mornings and afternoons and keep the evenings free for more informal exchange, spontaneous discussions and a cultural program.

    Logistical remarks and requests: We try to organize the summer camp and the preparation bilingual: in English and French. If we need translations into other languages, we will organise this together in the camp.

    Please let us know from your group and network, with how many people you want to join the transnational summer camp. We need you first registration with a rough overview at least until 15th of March 2019. Also, Let us know as soon as possible, if your group or network can NOT cover traveling costs and/or you need support in visa issues.
    But keep in mind: in the preparation group we are all activists on a voluntary level without any salary and given budget. We just try to collect money to make the participation possible for all friends, who are interested in this project and where the traveling costs and visa might be an obstacle.

    The preparation group includes already activists from groups and networks in Barcelona, Berlin, Bern, Bremen, Hanau, Ljubljana, Marseille, Thessaloniki, Venice, Zagreb, Zurich… We want to become more transnational and let us know, if you want to join the preparation process. We will, then, include you in the mailing list for the summer camp preparation.

    Please contact us, if you have any questions.

    No Border Camp 2019 1-4 Augustus NL

    No Border Network

    Restricting migration is a priority for the Dutch government and the EU. The walls of Fortress Europe are rising taller, rescue-missions by aid organisations are counteracted, and refugees are locked up and deported. Thousands of people die in the Mediterranean Sea or in the desert, or they are stuck in horrible conditions. Politicians instigate hate against refuguees, while weapons-companies are in the mean time making big money on militarising borders. Rich Western countries keep fueling the reasons why people flee through unequal trade, weapon exports, causing climate change, and military interventions.

    Reason enough to take action. Come to the No Border Camp in the beginning of August, for workshops, meeting people and actions on a extraparliamentary and anti-authoritarian basis. To build bridges to other intersections of struggle, like anti-racism, decolonisation, queer- and trans struggle, climate action, anti-militarisation, and the struggle of migrants themselves for their rights.

    For more information or if you want to help, see no-border.nl or send an e-mail to nbc2019@no-border.nl. For financial contributions, please transfer to NL75INGB0004253090 for Ithaka, mention No Border Camp 2019 in the notification section.

    The No Border Camp 2019 will take place in Zuid-Holland the Netherlands. The location will be published a week before the camp due to security reasons.
