Νέα ερώτηση Βόζεμπεργκ για τη στάση της Κομισιόν στις αυξημένες μεταναστευτικές ροές από Τουρκία

Βρυξέλλες, 23 Αυγούστου 2019

Νέα ερώτηση Βόζεμπεργκ για τη στάση της Κομισιόν

στις αυξημένες μεταναστευτικές ροές από Τουρκία

Με αφορμή τα νέα δεδομένα που έχουν προκύψει για τις μεταναστευτικές ροές μέσω των ανατολικών θαλάσσιων συνόρων της χώρας, οι οποίες παρουσίασαν κατακόρυφη αύξηση της τάξης του 120% τον περασμένο μήνα, η ευρωβουλευτής της Νέας Δημοκρατίας και του Ε.Λ.Κ. κυρία Ελίζα Βόζεμπεργκ - Βρυωνίδη κατέθεσε νέα ερώτηση στην Ευρωπαϊκή Επιτροπή, τονίζοντας την ανάγκη άσκησης περαιτέρω πιέσεων από την Ε.Ε. για τη διαχείριση του φαινομένου και την ίση κατανομή των βαρών μεταξύ των κρατών μελών. 

Η Ελληνίδα ευρωβουλευτής αναφέρθηκε, μεταξύ άλλων, στις γεωπολιτικές εξελίξεις στη λεκάνη της Μεσογείου, αλλά και στην προκλητική και απρόβλεπτη στάση της Τουρκίας, που απειλεί τη συνέχιση εφαρμογής της Συμφωνίας Ε.Ε. – Τουρκίας για το προσφυγικό, δεδομένης μάλιστα της υπερσυγκέντρωσης υπηκόων τρίτων χωρών στα τουρκικά παράλια.

Στο πλαίσιο αυτό και λαμβανομένων υπόψη των ισχυρών μεταναστευτικών πιέσεων που δέχονται εκ νέου τα ελληνικά νησιά, η Ελίζα Βόζεμπεργκ καλεί την Επιτροπή να αναλάβει επείγουσα δράση και να επισπεύσει τις διαδικασίες κοινής αντιμετώπισης των προβλημάτων, επιδεικνύοντας για ακόμη μία φορά αλληλεγγύη στις χώρες πρώτης υποδοχής προσφύγων  

Το πλήρες κείμενο της ερώτησης της Ελίζας Βόζεμπεργκ:

«Έντονο προβληματισμό έχει προκαλέσει το τελευταίο διάστημα η κατακόρυφη αύξηση των μεταναστευτικών ροών μέσω των ανατολικών θαλάσσιων συνόρων της Ελλάδας, με αποτέλεσμα να δέχονται εκ νέου μεγάλες πιέσεις τα νησιά της Λέσβου, της Χίου, της Σάμου, της Λέρου και της Κω. Τον περασμένο Ιούλιο οι αφίξεις υπηκόων τρίτων χωρών στα παραπάνω νησιά ανήλθαν σε 6.000 περίπου, σημειώνοντας άνοδο της τάξης του 120% συγκριτικά με τον Ιούλιο του 2018. Την ίδια ώρα αυξητικές είναι οι τάσεις και στα χερσαία σύνορα του Έβρου και συγκεκριμένα στην περιοχή της Αλεξανδρούπολης.

Παράλληλα, η μεγάλη συγκέντρωση προσφύγων και μεταναστών στα παράλια της Τουρκίας αλλά και οι γεωπολιτικές εξελίξεις στην Ανατολική Μεσόγειο προκαλούν δικαιολογημένη ανησυχία για επιδείνωση της κατάστασης τους επόμενους μήνες, δεδομένων και των καλών καιρικών συνθηκών. Σε αυτό το πλαίσιο, η απρόβλεπτη στάση της Τουρκίας απέναντι στη συμφωνία της με την Ε.Ε. για τους πρόσφυγες και οι επαναλαμβανόμενες  απειλές για άνοιγμα των συνόρων της, δημιουργούν κλίμα πίεσης σε Ελλάδα και Ευρώπη και έχουν θέσει τις ελληνικές αρχές σε κατάσταση επιφυλακής.

Δεδομένου ότι, μέχρι στιγμής, τα αντικρουόμενα συμφέροντα των κρατών μελών στη διαχείριση του προσφυγικού ζητήματος εμποδίζουν την πλήρη εφαρμογή των ευρωπαϊκών αποφάσεων για δίκαιη και αναλογική κατανομή των προσφύγων σε ολόκληρη την Ε.Ε. ερωτάται η Επιτροπή:

            Πώς σκοπεύει να αντιδράσει με βάση τα νέα δεδομένα έτσι ώστε να υπάρξει ίση κατανομή βαρών μεταξύ των κρατών μελών και όχι υπερσυσσώρευση προσφυγικών πληθυσμών στην Ελλάδα;».

August 26, 2019
Biarritz, France

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today concluded his participation at the G7 Leaders’ Summit in Biarritz, France.

In discussions on the global economy with G7 leaders, Prime Minister Trudeau stressed the need for leaders to work together to build economies that work for everyone and strengthen the middle class. He underscored the importance of the rules-based international order in supporting growth and opportunities for people around the world to share in a better future.

The G7 leaders also agreed to Prime Minister Trudeau's initiative to task their Finance Ministers to report back to their leaders on the state of the global economy, so countries can take concerted action to address signs of risk and ensure stable, sustained growth for people.

Prime Minister Trudeau also announced $179.2 million in investments to support quality education for women and girls living in crisis, conflict-affected and fragile states.

THE WHITE HOUSE's latest news

The White House • August 26, 2019 5 big takeaways from President Trump at the G-7 Summit Today, President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump return home after attending this year’s G-7 Summit in Biarritz, France. President Trump met with world leaders to strengthen our alliances, secure better trade deals, and—as always—keep the interests of the American people front and center on the global stage.  The summit began in 1975 as an opportunity for world leaders to meet face-to-face and find solutions to the most pressing modern-day global challenges. This year was no exception, as President Trump worked with our allies to chart a course toward even more prosperity both here at home and around the world. Here are a few of the biggest takeaways from the trip:   A message of unity. President Trump and President Emmanuel Macron of host nation France held a joint press conference earlier today. Over the weekend, they worked together to achieve progress on a number of fronts, including global security, fair trade practices, and better economic opportunity for all. “I want to thank you very much, Mr. President, for the incredible job you did. This is a truly successful G-7,” President Trump said.   Securing a billion-dollar trade deal. One of the biggest wins from the summit was President Trump’s announcement of locking in a trade agreement with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan. The deal secures market access for a number of American agricultural goods, and Japan has agreed to purchase large sums of our farmers’ corn.   Promoting USMCA. With Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau by his side, President Trump talked about the importance of expanding America’s trading partnership with our neighbors by passing the U.S.–Mexico–Canada Agreement. With both Canada and Mexico having essentially finalized it, President Trump noted that it’s time for American lawmakers to do the same. “Our farmers love it, the unions love it, the workers love it, manufacturers love it . . . hopefully that’ll be put to a vote very soon.”   Developing stronger trade with Europe. While meeting with Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, President Trump discussed how best to meet global and regional security challenges and previewed even better trade relations to come with Germany and the European Union. Germany is “a great trading partner,” he said. “And we probably think we’re going to be upping the trade over a very short period of time.”   Helping to reduce India-Pakistan tensions. In his meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India, President Trump reaffirmed the need for dialogue between India and Pakistan and also worked to build on the great economic relations between our nations.

Click here to read more. “The Trump administration announced last week it will terminate the Flores settlement agreement, a 1997 court decree that has prevented U.S. officials from detaining migrant families and unaccompanied minors for more than 20 days. Media coverage predictably—and inaccurately—warned of ‘indefinite detention’ for families and children caught crossing the southwest border,” John Daniel Davidson writes in The Wall Street Journal. “But ending the settlement was the right call. More than any other single policy, it has created a magnet for illegal immigration, essentially guaranteeing entry to unaccompanied minors and any adult who crosses the Rio Grande with a child.” “President Trump got slammed by all sides for suddenly escalating his economic war with China on Friday. But for Americans who have lost a family member or friend to the Chinese-made street drug fentanyl, Trump’s harsh pivot is the right move,” Betsy McCaughey writes in the New York Post. “In the last three years alone, fentanyl and similar synthetic opioids manufactured in Chinese labs have killed some 79,000 Americans. That’s more than the American combatants killed in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq combined.”

G7 Leaders’ Declaration - Biarritz, 26 August 2019 The summit took place under the French presidency of the G7, which is centred around the fight against inequalities. With that goal in mind, the French G7 presidency has adjusted the format of the G7 to involve international partners and representatives of civil society. The EU's priority during the summit was to defend the rules-based order and its organisations as the best approach to global governance. Donald Tusk warned ahead of the summit that the meeting would be a difficult test of unity and solidarity for the free world and its leaders: "There is still no certainty whether the group will be able to find common solutions, and the global challenges are today really serious, or whether it will focus on senseless disputes among each other. The last years have shown that it is increasingly difficult for all of us to find common language when the world needs our cooperation more, not less. This may be the last moment to restore our political community."
