In Iran, Afghan refugees tell of dreams of a better life

20 Apr 2023  |  Al Jazeera
The article discusses the plight of Afghan refugees in Iran, many of whom lack basic human rights and live without proper documentation. It follows the story of Jawad Jafari and his wife Masoomi, Afghan refugees born in Iran, who faced discrimination and eventually fled to Germany. Human Rights Watch has accused Iran of maltreating Afghan refugees, including deportations and physical abuse. The article also touches on the EU's tightening asylum policies and the controversial recruitment of Afghan refugees by Iran to fight in Syria. In Germany, Afghan refugees like Jawad, Masoomi, and others continue to face uncertainty as they await decisions on their asylum applications, while dreaming of a life with human rights and opportunities.

Plagiarism Scandals Shake Serbian Politics and Academia

05 Apr 2023  |  LSE Blogs
The article by Natalija Miletic discusses a series of plagiarism scandals involving Serbian politicians and academics. Three politicians, including the Minister of Interior, the Mayor of Belgrade, and the President of New Belgrade, have been accused of plagiarizing their PhD dissertations. The Rector and owner of Megatrend University, Mr. Mica Jovanovic, was also implicated for falsely claiming a PhD from the London School of Economics. The scandals have highlighted issues with the integrity of Serbian higher education and the lack of institutional response to academic malpractice. Despite the allegations, there has been no significant action from universities or political parties to address the issue transparently. The article compares the situation to plagiarism cases in other countries, noting the swift responses elsewhere, and calls for a more robust institutional and political reaction in Serbia.

Afghan asylum seekers in Germany face deportation

01 Apr 2023  |  Al Jazeera
The article discusses the plight of Afghan asylum seekers in Germany, focusing on the stories of Zabihullah Karimi and Naser Hashemi, who are facing deportation back to Afghanistan despite the life-threatening conditions there. Germany has tightened its asylum regulations and is expediting deportations, with plans to return 11,900 Afghans. The article highlights the record high civilian casualties in Afghanistan and the criticism from human rights groups and political parties like Die Linke against the German government's policies. It also touches on the EU's Dublin rules and the conditions of refugees in Greece, with advocacy by PRO ASYL for better treatment of refugees.

Afghan refugees stranded in Serbia

05 Jan 2023  |  Al Jazeera
The article describes the harsh conditions faced by refugees and migrants in Belgrade, Serbia, during winter. Many are from Afghanistan and Pakistan, fleeing conflict and threats from groups like the Taliban. They live in abandoned buildings, struggling with cold weather, illness, and smoke inhalation from fires used for warmth. The UNHCR provides some assistance, but the Serbian government has banned NGOs from distributing food, blankets, and clothing to those outside official camps. The refugees aim to reach other EU countries, but closed borders and the Dublin Regulation, which allows deportation back to the first EU country they registered in, hinder their movement. Human rights organizations have reported mistreatment of refugees by Bulgarian authorities, and the Serbian government's response to the crisis is criticized as inadequate.

Concern over EU plans to send refugees back to Greece

11 May 2017  |  Al Jazeera

They are housed in a disused airport hangar and abandoned Olympic sports stadiums on the outskirts of Athens. The piece highlights the lack of control these individuals feel over their lives, leading to increased anger and frustration. Lucy Carrigan from the International Rescue Committee describes the situation as dehumanizing, with people who had various professions before fleeing war now feeling reduced to mere numbers. The Greek Ministry of Migration declined to comment on the conditions in the camps.

Stranded and sick, refugees endure harsh Serbian winter

11 May 2017  |  Al Jazeera
The article reports on the situation at the Serbian-Hungarian border where many refugees and migrants had set up an impromptu camp in hopes of entering the European Union. Serbian police conducted a raid, dismantling tents and transporting those who had not registered to a reception centre. Despite the raid, some asylum-seekers remain in the area, seeking refuge in forests and abandoned buildings. The UNHCR notes over 6,400 individuals are stranded in Serbia due to European border closures. The Serbian government assures shelter availability, especially in harsh winter conditions. Conversely, Hungary's Homeland Security adviser criticizes NGOs for spreading misinformation about border openness and announces Hungary's plan to detain asylum-seekers during application processing.
