Dear all
As many of you will be aware, 49 refugees and migrants remain stranded
in the Mediterranean. Some of them were picked up 12 days ago, and so
far no Member State has stepped up and offered refuge.
We are asking academics to endorse the following statement, calling on
the EU and MS to support the life-saving work of search and rescue
vessels, to open ports for safe disembarkation, and to assume shared
responsibility for refugees and migrants saved at sea.
If you agree with the statement, please sign your name on the following
link:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_CI335_xX8V3isImToeeNJbGtqlpzNS_iFdu4eM7Rrk/edit?usp=sharing
Can we also ask you to share this link with your colleagues. We will be
issuing this statement as a press release at 1600hrs CET today. Please
treat as urgent.
Thanks,
Maria
