Seenotrettungsorganisationen unterstützen durch ihre Missionen im Mittelmeer Schlepperbanden, die an den gefährlichen Überfahrten verdienen, erklärte Frontex-Chef Fabrice Leggeri im Interwiew mit der Zeitung „DIE WELT“ am 27. Februar 2017.
During the interception the migrants’ boat capsized. The survivors witnessed that the Marine Royal did not rescue all passengers, but only 5 of the 8. The Marine Royal then left the three dead bodies behind.
We ask for that in order to respect the dignity of the victims/survivors but also to maintain dignity ourselves, so that we can create a community and society in which the privacy and dignity of all people are valued and respected.
Das Alarm Phone fordert den umgehenden Transport der auf der griechischen Insel Farmakonisi gestrandeten Flüchtenden. Die Reisenden, die auf der Insel festsitzen, sind unmenschlichen Bedingungen ausgesetzt.
"Wir erleben viel Leid und Verzweiflung. Gleichzeitig werden wir jedoch angespornt und inspiriert durch den hartnäckigen Willen und die unglaubliche Entschiedenheit, das Meer zu überqueren und zu den erwünschten Orten innerhalb Europas zu gelangen."
