Recent attempts to criminalise sea rescuers show one thing above all: the entry of migrants should be prevented by all means. After the confiscation of the ship Iuventa owned by Jugend rettet, the ship Open Arms of the NGO Proactiva Open Arms has now also been confiscated and members of the crew are accused of "facilitating illegal migration".

Kaum vereidigt, hat der neue Innenminister Italiens Matteo Salvini sich sofort auf den Weg nach Sizilien gemacht. Kein Zufall, denn hier an „unserer Grenze“, wie Salvini die Insel bezeichnet, kann er die Stoßrichtung seiner Migrations- und Abschottungspolitik so deutlich wie nie vor Augen führen: Hilfsorganisationen sollen nach Vorstellung der neuen italienischen Regierung künftig keine Flüchtlinge mehr retten, die im Mittelmeer in Seenot geraten sind. Die Rettungs-NGOS bezeichnete Salvini als „Vizes-Schlepper“, denen der Zugang zu den italienischen Häfen verweigert werden soll.

Dieser Bericht entstand auf Grundlage einer zwei wöchigen Reise auf die Insel Lesbos im April 2018. Bereits 2016 haben die borderline-europe Mitarbeiter Stephan Schmidt und Harald Glöde einen Reisebericht zu Lesbos verfasst. Wir haben in diesem Jahr Gespräche mit Anwält*innen, NGOMitarbeiter*innen,
Geflüchteten und Aktivist*innen vor Ort geführt. Dieser neue Bericht soll Einblicke zur aktuellen Lage geflüchteter Menschen auf der Insel geben und Verlinkungen zu weiteren Informationsplattformen herstellen.
