UN: "No" in automatic returns to TurkeyChecks should be entitled to asylum each person reaches a Member State of the European Union and not be automatically sent back to Turkey today stressed in statements to Sputnik news agency the representative of the High Commissioner of the United Nations, William Spindler.
"One of the dimensions (SS of the EU-Turkey Agreement) that cause us particular concern is the return of all these people arriving in Greece from Turkey in an organized way, whatever he ...
When these people arrive, you can not determine whether someone is a refugee or immigrant just looking at him. You need to assess the condition of the person before you decide to return. What is proposed is a return without any assessment, "said Spindler.
It would be a violation of international law such a practice, in which the return precedes the evaluation of the situation, he said.
"If you get in any country of the world and statements that you are a refugee and you left to be saved from expulsion, this country has an obligation to offer you protection," stated the representative of UNHCR.
He noted, however, that if a person is verified to be economic migrants could lawfully be returned to Turkey under readmission agreement.
