Latin America Europe
A symbol, they say, does not seems the most appropriate for our friends in Africa, the Maghreb or Middle East. And in Latin America, we added. Both politicians claim that the length of detention authorized (18 months) is disproportionate to the time required to organize the return of a foreigner. The introduction of a ban on return to European territory for five years seems to stigmatize people evicted as perpetrators of a crime which must be punished, and with the added risk of denying them the future exercise of the essential rights, such as the right of asylum or family reunification. They call attention to the serious limitation of the guarantees provided for the imprisonment or expulsion of vulnerable persons (minors, sick).
The conditions of deprivation of liberty and expulsion of the affected people require to be appreciated and evaluated with the utmost attention the necessary balance between repressive measures and which guarantee a real protection of the fundamental rights of these persons. This balance must be imperatively preserved. In the background it be consistent with the idea that we have about how Europe should respect the dignity of persons. Or host countries, with humanitarian and fair measures, we are or will be liable for not correspond to good that these countries made citizens emigrated from Europe for centuries. It is true that they must exist rules on immigration, work wherever possible and appropriate, health care, their children’s education and pensions to the elderly. But we also have to review our policy with its raw materials and workmanship which, already in their countries, provided our economies and end unjustifiable subsidies to our agricultural products and the obstacles to the import of products from the countries of these immigrants. In many cases, the metropolis European imposed monocultures, piecework, the breach of the social clause to its workers and so many easements that we owe the just reparation and treatment of equals in dignity and in political and social rights. As wrote the Professor Sami Nair: Europe is shielded against immigrants. The European directive on illegal immigration and the French proposals on integration of foreigners are very disturbing. Once again, it legislates from the exaggeration of data and the repressive mentality.
