🔎ECRE’s analysis indicates that the proposed Regulation falls short of achieving the objectives set out by the European Commission (EC) and risks creating a system in which an increasing number of third-country nationals are left in legal limbo without access to basic rights and essential services.

👉It reminds us, especially those in power, that safeguarding the rights of people on the move is not an act of generosity; it is a legal and moral duty that defines Europe’s commitment to human rights. Turning away from it means turning away from the very values on which Europe was built.

To everyone in Europe who cares about human rights:
▪️Now is the time to speak out.
▪️Do not allow your governments to disguise political engagement with the Taliban as “technical co-operation.” Instead, remind them that such engagement empowers a regime built and sustained on repression.

Reminders regarding European talks on returns to Afghanistan:
🔴Taliban continues to commit systematic human rights violations.
🔴 Any engagement risks legitimising and normalising their rule at home and internationally;
🔴 Forced returns would violate the fundamental principle of non-refoulement.
