Es mag auf den ersten Blick absurd klingen, aber: Man muss Thailand, Malaysia und Indonesien geradezu dankbar sein, dass sie ihre Seegrenzen geschlossen und Flüchtlinge wieder aufs offene Meer zurückgeschickt haben. Denn die Krise in Südostasien lenkt den Blick auf einen (vergessenen) Missstand in Burma. read more

During the first four months of the year nearly 27,000 migrants and asylum seekers arrived in Greece, according to police figures, compared to 5,100 during the same period last year. Nearly half of them - 13,500 - entered in April alone, most after boarding smugglers’ boats in Turkey and heading for some of the many Aegean islands. Previously most arrived to the north Aegean islands of Lesvos, Chios and Samos and in manageable numbers. Now arrivals are being registered even in the more southerly Aegean islands such as Kos. More information about the situation in Kos. read more

At the time of writing there are around 500 refugees in the Detention Centre including over 20 young children. Last week the number was over 700. This is in a centre which was built to accommodate 250 people. The authorities – the coastguards, the port police, the police in general, the public prosecutor, the Mayor of Samos, are part of the problem and they comply with EU and nation state policies which are nothing less than cruel and inhumane. They are active in making the journey to Samos more dangerous than it need be. Call to Write/phone/e mail the Chief of Police and the Mayor of Samos. read more

The Guardian's view on Mediterranean migrants: The EU's rescue plan has many flaws. Britain has taken the lead in trampling the solidarity principle on asylum. The EU migration plan is long on rhetoric but short on substance. The causes of African migration must be addressed. Next month’s summit must lead to genuine action. read more
