Frontex 2.0: The European Union’s armed wing - Further reinforced and still untouchable

28 April 2016

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

"By August 2016, the European institutions aim to replace Frontex by a new coast guards and border-guards agency which will further jeopardise the rights of migrants and refugees. This new mandate reinforces the serious concerns expressed by the FRONTEXIT campaign since its establishment: deter, control and keep away men, women and children deemed undesirable while they are exerting their right to leave any country and the right to seek asylum."
