Efficiency through dignity: why Europe’s return policies need human rights - Commissioner for Human Rights - www.coe.int
Strasbourg 28/01/2026
We must not choose between efficiency and human rights. We won't 'magically' increase return numbers by tearing up the rulebook. Only a lawful, fair, and dignified return policy can deliver results.
My views on the future of returns, including the EU Return Regulation www.coe.int/en/web/commi...

#Italy visit, day 2: I met with the Minister of Labour and Social Policy and with the Director General of the National Office against Racial Discrimination (UNAR). I was inspired by the wonderful kids I met at the Punto Luce run by Save the Children in Torre Maura.

Started my visit to #Italy by engaging with civil society representatives. Insightful exchanges on child poverty and the national #HumanRights architecture. It was also a privilege to address Universitá Roma Tre on States' duty to protect the integrity of the #ECHR.

Refute the critics: human rights are Europe’s greatest strategic asset
Strasbourg 18/12/2025
European leaders need to refute the critics: Europe’s power lies not in mimicking those who oppose #HumanRights, but in showing that dignity, law, and freedom remain the only foundations on which a stable and prosperous future can be built.

This is a very important day for those seeking justice at Europe’s borders. The judgment shows that every national and EU law can be challenged under the lens of the EU charter of fundamental rights. This could be the beginning of the reconsideration of the entire anti-smuggling legislation, leaving no space for the criminalization of migration and solidarity. Francesca Cancellaro, lawyer of O.B.
Landmark ruling in the Kinsa case‼️
EU’s top court rules: Anti-smuggling laws must not violate fundamental rights.
⭕ The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) declared that helping minors under one’s care to enter the EU is not a crime.

If you think suspending Habeas Corpus "just for undocumented immigrants" is acceptable, remember that there would be NO HEARINGS and NO LEGAL RECOURSE for ANYONE detained in this way
So all they have to do is CLAIM that YOU are an undocumented immigrant to DISAPPEAR YOU

The @commissionerhr.bsky.social just released a new memorandum on Greece, denouncing persisting pushbacks and entrenched lack of accountability. High time to acknowledge the long-standing prevalence of violations at Greece’s sea and land borders and provide adequate remedy to victims.

We’ve made a series of suggestions to @ec.europa.eu to help it monitor EU funds granted to Member States for border management and ensure their use does not result in fundamental rights violations.

Il 2 febbraio 2017, Italia e Libia concludevano un Memorandum di cooperazione, i cui frutti avvelenati sono stati resi ben visibili - da ultimo - dal caso Almasri. Il prossimo 2 novembre scade il termine per revocarlo, o si rinnoverà automaticamente per altri 3 anni. Ecco.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.
Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
